How to get rid of this malware in my Facebook page?

fantasyvn

Could you pls help me?

I received a (fake) YouTube link in my Facebook inbox and clicked on that link.

Afterwards, this link was automatically sent to my facebook contacts. They would receive a notice like this, "[My name] said he was with you and others. You can choose if you want to add it to your timeline."

Now, even if I change my browser on my computer, from Firefox to Chrome, my fake YouTube link would still be sent to my Facebook contacts. Apparently the link would be sent again after a few hours.


What can I do to remove this problem?

My sincere thanks,
