Outline:
Circulating message warns that there is a ‘new hack on Facebook’ in which the perpetrators ‘arise’ between comments and are thus able to post offensive material that looks like it came from you.
Brief Analysis:
The message is so garbled and misleading that it has no value whatsoever as a security warning and will likely just mislead and confuse Facebook users. There are indeed various security threats that can allow malicious users to hijack your Facebook account and post content in your name. However, this warning does not clearly or accurately describe such threats and copying and pasting it to your wall is therefore counterproductive (Refer to the Detailed Analysis below for more information).
Example:
Hey, there I just got this from a good friend! There is a new hack on Facebook. He/She arises between the comments of your contact’s posts, with an offensive comment. It’s really ugly and looks like it came from you. You don’t see him, but your friends do. This can create many offensive misunderstandings. They also post porn pictures. I want to say to all my contacts that if something comes up in my name that is insulting and malicious, it is not my own. Copy and paste on your wall so others will know.
