I didn't change the status on my facebook account but then I found it changed to some kind of pills ads? - elssa - 11-09-2012 10:10 AM

it says I lost 8 1/2 pounds in only 2 weeks with this new pill! visit PurgeColon.net to get your free trial pack! Afo

is this some kind of virus or something ?

dont you think somebody hacked your account?

Your account was phished. You probably clicked on a link similar to that and they stole your account information. Just change your password

Yup! I saw the same thing from my friend just recently except it said IJI in the end instead of Afo.

Umm....reasons might have been from something you downloaded, an application you used, or it's just the whole facebook is infected but only targets a small amount of people. I might consider this as a phishing virus, then once you get to the website, malware and virus. It's like the phishing links in Messengers.

Be careful and if you want, just delete those posts from your page. Big Grin

I just seen this on a friends status as well.

My friends status on facebook says that too

Just logged in to facebook to find exactly the same status.. updated about two hours ago..

i've been using very few applications. farmville, graffiti, and a who is stalking your facebook profile(don't remember the name) application.

what about you guys? think the problem is application related?

just changed my password, so i hope that solved the problem..

I got this today too, I do not have any facebook applications installed.

I am very carful with what I click on. I am using IE8 and Windows 7

I think this is a password leak, I changed my facebook account to allow other account logins, ie google. This is the only thing I can think of that caused this.
