    Angry Top 5 Current Facebook Scams

    An everyday user or not, I think it's worth having a look at this. Moreover we should warn our buddies.
    There’s been a lot of buzz surrounding Facebook here at MUO recently. We’ve only just published our very unofficial guide to Facebook privacy, there’s the recent article about the new Facebook data downloader and I blew a fuse in a recent rant.

    Even if you’re happy-as-Larry with the service, spend all your spare time poking your friends and uploading photos then you might be aware that a number of Facebook scams exist, some being more obvious to spot than others.

    A simple lapse in concentration or placing trust in the recommendation of a friend could compromise your account, and any websites that share your Facebook login information. I’m not saying everyone’s out to get you – but you might want to look over your virtual shoulder every now and again.

    I'm not into the social networking scene very much. But I appreciate the information Alboguy.
