I picked this one up just now (in my spam inbox) - text repeated below; it looked genuine enough, graphics included, apart from the fact that I don't do Facebook Rolling Eyes Laughing . When I roll over the link it shows an address which is certainly NOT facebook, and is not the one quoted - when pressing the link my virus software gives the "do not go there" warning.


"facebook
Facebook sent you a notification

You have 1 lost message on Facebook, to recover a message follow the link below:
http://www.xxxfacebook.com/profile.php?lost_message=16d697


FAQ: Can you recieve messages if your inbox is full?"

note I have inserted "xxx" - see later post


be careful if you get this e-mail, dump it without doing the link. Facebook members by all means report it. Cool

Thanks for posting the warning.

I've also had this and similar several times. However, the give-away is that they come through addressed to one of my business e-mail addresses, which is quite different from the one I have on my Facebook account.

Strange. Looks OK to me. I clicked on it and it took me straight into my Facebook account. The address looks OK although I don't know about the lost message bit. Maybe someone has tried to send you an email through Facebook assuming that you are a member or perhaps a member has given someone your email address by mistake.

I got one a couple of weeks ago.

Definitely a scam since I have never been on Facebook!

yes, when I picked up the text it created a genuine link to facebook - (please note I've edited the original ) - my e-mail definitely had a dodgy link that was not facebook, when rolling over the link with the mouse!
