Facebook Scam Picking Up In Intensity

It looks like that old "I was robbed in London, send money" trick is not only still around, it is gaining in popularity on Facebook. While I know you guys wouldn't fall for something like this, it might be a good idea to spread the word to your friends and family that might.

A phishing scam that seems to have hooked and hacked many Facebook members' accounts since early this year appears to have picked up in intensity over the last month. Hackers are logging into users' accounts, but it's actually not the hacked member who falls victim to the lucrative scam. It's their friends.
