Viber has released its official client for Ubuntu/Linux. To install it, open your terminal with CTRL+ALT+T and type:
wget http://download.cdn.viber.com/cdn/desktop/Linux/Viber.zip
Then unzip it and cd to that viber directory. Then do as:
unzip Viber.zip
cd Viber
~/Viber/Viber.sh
That will install Viber in your Ubuntu.
How to install in .DEB way // Currently only 64-bit available
Open your terminal and type:
wget -O viber.deb http://download.cdn.viber.com/cdn/desktop/Linux/viber.deb
sudo dpkg -i viber.deb
That's it. You can access Viber in your Ubuntu.
Update : I came to know that some of the users are getting
home/xyz/Viber/Viber: 1: /home/xyz/Viber/Viber: �: not found
/home/xyz/Viber/Viber: 1: /home/xyz/Viber/Viber: ELF: not found
/home/xyz/Viber/Viber: 1: /home/xyz/Viber/Viber: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")
so that Issue can be fixed by "♦: command not found" in tty after login post.

Out of curiosity, what is the difference between ~/Viber/Viber.sh and ./Viber.sh (while in the directory)? Thanks.

after cd to Viber you just need to do either ./Viber or ./Viber.sh both are same. If you do not cd to viber then with single command ~/Viber/Viber.sh you can do it.

Download deb package from viber.com
Install the .deb package:
cd /viber_download_location/
sudo dpkg -i viber.deb
If you are running 32bit system use
sudo dpkg --force-architecture -i viber.deb

Thank you for your interest in this question.
Because it has attracted low-quality or spam answers that had to be removed, posting an answer now requires 10 reputation on this site (the association bonus does not count).
Would you like to answer one of these unanswered questions instead?
@Partha the second answer is a DEB . make sure that you are using a 64-bit Ubuntu.
