Facebook Glitch Let Spammer Post to Walls

Earlier this week in what was described by Facebook as a clever spammer, exploited a bug in the code and went on a wall posting spree. To say Facebook has had its share of bugs and glitches this year would be a mild understatement.

Most of the messages promised "Free iPhones," a common spam message on Facebook these days. The free iPhone and iPad messages generally take users to websites where they are instructed to fill out marketing surveys or sign up for product subscriptions. Victims have reported having their phone numbers inundated with calls after filling out these surveys.
