Macbook viruses happen people.
Due to the heavy following Apple has, It’s no longer that PCs get viruses and Macs don’t. Macs are just as exposed to those little nasties. They are no longer a special breed that is invincible.
In fact, in personal tests (yes, for testing purposed only of course), I downloaded the same torrent on a PC and a Mac. Both got infected, but the Mac was infected more severely and took more actions to remove the virus. Plus, I got a pop-up to call a supposed virus removal specialist to remove it. That was obviously a Mac hacker attempt that I laughed at.
What’s the take-away here? When a Mac contracts a virus, it gets hit hard!
