Nodestealer is a sneaky piece of code that runs on JavaScript and Node.js, and it can grab your web browser data and use it to hack into your Facebook account.
How?
When you click on these ads in FB, you’re actually downloading the NodeStealer virus, which then starts to spy on your online activity.
Why do it?
NodeStealer can then start to spy on your online activity, it typically implies that the virus can gather information about your browsing habits, possibly including login credentials and personal data. While it doesn’t explicitly state that it hacks other accounts, the gathered information could potentially be used to compromise your other online accounts if you use similar passwords across multiple services.
