I Believe there is a Breach on Facebook? - 458 - 05-20-2014 07:54 PM

I've been receiving emails from purported friends but the sender could only have gotten address from Facebook. IE: From Denise xxxxx (pixeldust@ntown.com) I know Denise and she said she hasn't sent anything like this. They are pushing Viagra, Cialas, etc.
I've enrolled in the UNSUBSCRIBER on Yahoo but that doesn't fix this issue. Someone I've only talked to twice on Facbook is also very upset over something they think I sent them. I don't even know their email address.
Has anything been reported?

The more people that use a particular software, the more attractive it becomes as a target for scammers and spammers. That's when the software developers are put to the test to make their software more secure and hack-proof. That's what caused the death of Myspace... hackers and viruses destroyed it and all trust people had in it. If Facebook isn't careful and on the ball, the same will happen to it.
