Warning: Facebook spam
If one of your friends on Facebook says something on your wall like, “You look funny in this pic” and attaches a link, DO NOT CLICK THE LINK! I’m pretty sure that what happens is that when you click the link your Facebook account will be hacked and your Facebook account will post links like these to other peoples wall. I’m not saying that all the links on Facebook are spam, but still, keep on the lookout.
I know that this post is going to be really short but it’s just to warn you about this.
