As more and more people are getting online on the popular social networking websites like the Facebook , spammers are creating new bait to spread spam . Some times it is the links like “Verify your account to prevent Spam” or “You have been tagged ” and recently the “Watch the OSAMA shoot down video. The spam links points to fake videos or spammy websites or Facebook spam spreading apps .
Today I saw the “see who has been stalking you” (pic above) link posted by a friend of mine on my Facebook wall . She had actually curiously clicked on the same link when she saw it on her Facebook wall .And after the click , it got posted on all of her friends wall . Of-course everyone is interested in knowing “who has viewed my Facebook profile” but many of us do not know that it is not possible on Facebook (Yes , it is possible on Orkut) . Read the below faq from the Facebook :

So next time you see any such message on your facebook wall , then better delete it (so that no one else click on it) and you can also report it (mentioned above in the FB faq) to help to keep the great social networking website spam free .
