Watch Your Faceback

Some of your Facebook friends could be up to no good - watch your back...

If you don’t quite remember that kid from your elementary school who is requesting your friendship on Facebook – beware - he could be an evil robot. If someone has got a couple thousand friends, there’s a good chance they’re a fake and a hacker. One recent hacker collected data from over 1 million accounts and sold that info for about $25 per “friend.”

Obviously we shouldn’t friend people we don’t know – but if you’re still tempted – avoid profiles pictures featuring professional models. Check when they joined Facebook. If it’s recent and they have a lot of friends, it’s a fake.
