Daily Social Scam Report (9-4-2011)

 Time for today's daily social scam report:


OMG! Its unbelievable now you can get to know who views your facebook profile.. i can see my top profile visitors. Check yours at (bad short URL)
 OMG! Its unbelievable now you can get to know who views your facebook profile.. i can see my top profile visitors. Check yours at (different bad short URL)

 
First I want to say this message seems to be spreading very fast at the moment, its a pretty big wave going through. Its spreading though a Facebook App called "Watch it". Its also started spreading through an app called "Profile Watcher" however both are spreading the same domain. Doing a URLVoid not one service is detecting it as bad. The next bad url scanned on URLVoid also had no services detecting it.
  I'm getting a new iPhone 5 for FREE! Go to this page and leave a comment and you can get one too CLICK HERE >>
  Once again a few things are wrong with that message. First the Iphone 5 has not even been released yet. Second: How can an unreleased phone be given away for free? Clicking on the short URL will lead to you a Facebook social app called "Iphone Tester" and then will most likely try to get you to spread the link on your Facebook wall.
  Facebook shutting down date x for reason x
  Its been going through the social network a lot that Facebook will be shutting down due to a random reason. The reason could be the Facebook CEO wanting to go back to normal or to many members. Please be aware it would be a big announcement if Facebook were to really shut down almost all news sites would be posting about it. So remember it would most likely never shut down.
  Spider under skin, see the video
   First of all I don't know why someone would want to see a Spider under someones skin, it just sounds disgusting but scammers are using that message to spread another scam around the social network. So if you see that message saying "See the spider under the skin" just avoid it and leave it alone.
