A Fake Facebook Site

Well, actually they do it with sending you message with a fake url. They send you a fake message, pretending it is from facebook admin. Say something about facebook being too crowded or something and will select only a few user so the user need to log on now. They say it facebook.com, but in the href they actually write facebook.co.tv. Well, most people actually gonna ignore them, but an ignorance newbie will no doubt fall into it.

Dear All, sorry i actually write the wrong link. The link was actually facebook.co.tv, thanks for dvikramsingh for inform me this. Anyway, now it seem facebook has report the site, so you will not able to enter it with mozila firefox, but you still will be able to enter it if you use google Chrome. Thanks and sorry for the wrong link.

I believe this thing on cloning sites is called phishing. So yeah, I guess it's like hackers are fishing for your password.

Yes, i think you are true. A phishing site is a imitation of other site which purpose is usually to steal other people password. It is a very bad site and best to be avoid. I just hope those who make the site, stop doing this since it really are a crime to steal other private data. Anyway, thanks for responding to this discussion. Happy mylotting.

Well actually i never access the site. I am afraid to access it since i am afraid they will have malware there or somehow recored my cookies and other evil stuff that they might do to me. So better safe then sorry, i prefer not to check the site at all. Thanks for responding this discussion.

Well, there are many advantage of having another facebook account. For example, after they get your id. They will learn about you and your friend. Look how you communicate, then they will act like you and start requesting aid or money transfer from your friend. This kind of trick happened a lot where people still other id. Also, they can make you a spam and promoting their site. Anyway, be very careful and change your password regularly.

Really, i never actually heard the news. Isn't it what facebook do is a crime then? Has anyone sue this or at least, it's facebook already make a public announcement about this. Selling our info into other with our consent, can we actually think that is a crime? Thanks for responding this discussion.

Well how about me? I think I already encountered it. It makes me nervous now. Do I have to be?

Yes, but as long as you always on guard, and check always the href link while you click some link because most of the trick usually put a false href. But even if href is true, it still can be forward you to the wrong url if the link have a javascript command that forwand you, so check also the url. Be caution whenever you enter your password and you will be safe while playing facebook and many other internet web site all over the web.

I think if you already meet such a site, and then you enter your password into it. The best way is to quickly change your password. Also check most of your personal data and security question. Check also the e-mail address. Ok, i hope that will help. Thanks for responding.

Yes, your welcome. I just do what i think will help other. Because information like this are important and will help us improve our awareness and make us more careful while surfing the internet. Well thanks for responding this discussion, even though it just a one liner.

Yes, you should be. And if you meet some strange link from a people who say himself an admin in yahoo, mylot, facebook or other site, do check and recheck before you click the link they gave you. Also always check what behind the href since they usually give a link that direct you to a false place but with the right caption. Thanks for responding this discussion.

Yes me too. There really are always a person who like to cheat and trick other. Not only in real life, but also in internet life. It seem with internet evolve so fast, the trickster in this world also evolve fast too. And facebook might not the only site that these kind of people is after. Ok that's it from me, thank for your respond in this discussion.

Yes, most likely they will use the id they get to make another trick and scam. They people trick our friend to give them money. But maybe advertisement gonna work too. Or maybe all the combination of them. I just hope this kind of scammer stop doing what they do.

Yes, i actually also receive a yahoo fake admin e-mail requesting me to go to the fake yahoo site. Also, there are people who want to hack my paypal account with giving me e-mail to request me login from fake paypal site. Since i actually don't use the same e-mail id for my paypal, i know it is a very obvious lie. So be very careful every time you click a link some one gave you. you never know what evil plan they have. Thanks for responding.
