It Masquerading as a Legitimate Security Plugin that it contains 3 Files and on of the File Folder Contains some Core Files that seems to offer some Extra Future for WordPress. But all the Files Are Completely Fake.

According to Sucuri, Folder Contained all the Files are Hackingtools and one of the Inspect File  “class-social-facebook.php” which Appears to be Related to social network and the plugin pretends to be a “Spam Shield”.
