cheekymonkey Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Some of my friends on FB have informed me that I am sending out spam, messages like: James Pattinson 25 January at 05:38 hi! Scott http://XXwww.mmilimetr.republika.plXX/AX9px6YhnQ.html Sent via Facebook Mobile Now, I am of course in bed and not sending messages at this time. Also, I only ever browse FB from my iPhone or my Mac OS X machine. I'm also not the type to fall for phishing emails or give my credentials to any dodgy Apps. Have changed my password to be on the safe side, but does anyone have any idea what's going on here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJ Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Dodgey Facebook Application perhaps? What have you given access to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheekymonkey Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 The only non-standard apps are FarmVille, Bejeweled, YouTube and Weddingbook. I trust the first three but I expect I'd get in trouble with the missus if I delete the last one! Will investigate it further though. I don't think the apps have permission to send messages on my behalf though - only to post to the wall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
