December 02, 2009, 09:46:41 am
Logged onto my facebook yesterday and found that all of my friend had been sent a wall post about some ''article health'' rubbish from my facebook.
 
anyone got any ideas what this is or how bad it is? :please:

Sounds like SPAM.

My recomendation would be to contact Farcebook Site Support and report the user, but I don't use Farcebook so know nothing of how things work.

don't use Farcebook

That would be my advice but as it's totally unhelpful I'll keep schtum.

Nor me - I like my friends logic about not needing facebook 'If I want someone to talk to me, they have my mobile number. If they haven't got my mobile number, I don't want to speak to them'.

I had a 17 year old male model from Oxford wanting to be my friend when I first used it? WTF?  :'(

It was at this point that my facebook account was deleted...
