Social Media Scam - Facebook Profile Viewer
You should careful about your facebook account security while using unreliable application like Facebook Profile Viewer, which claims to allow you to see who has viewed your Facebook profile.
Messages claiming that Facebook has issued a new update which allows you to check who has visited your profile are making the rounds. If you are intrigued by the Facebook Profile Viewer enough to click on the link, you are asked to permit an application to access your profile.
You should always be very careful, of course, about allowing applications to read and write to your Facebook profile. And this time is no exception.
Because although at first you may believe that the application is showing you the details of people who have viewed your profile..
behind the scenes, it is posting a message to your Facebook page without your explicit permission, encouraging others to also use the application.
Clearly rogue applications like this could be used for scooping up personal information, or spreading spam and scams across the social network.
Facebook Profile Viewer Undo: So if you fell for it, remove the messages from your timeline, revoke the app's publishing rights and report it as spam to Facebook, and ensure that you have revoked its access to your account.
And remember this - Facebook does not give you any way to find out who has been viewing your profile. Any application or link which claims it can reveal to you who has should be treated with great suspicion.
