There's alot of "viral" stuff being sent today for some reason on Facebook. I received notifications from friends today telling me "they've lost XX # of pounds, click here," (and they're 110 pound women!!!) or "Here's a deal on an IPhone," etc. from people who could give a rat's ass about I-Phones!!
Please don't click on any of this crap. Received MANY bogus emails today from hacked accounts.
If you receive one, I would recommend, ..disconnect from Al Gore's "Internets" and do a virus scan.
Social networking is fun, byut hackers......
They exist solely to disrupt business (sounds like someone in the Oval Office)

Ppl are not doing business there, they are there having fun & wasting time... Maybe it is their bosses plotting against them??
"The American get your butt back to work brigade"???

No clue Bill - what I do know is these viruses are quite bad. Usually require a complete wipe of the HD.
I would recommend all backing up filed they'd not like to lose.

Those games are meant to get you hooked and prey on the stupid into paying with a credit card for extra time.
