Facebook enable dislike button wall post scam

The wall post says:
Facebook now has a dislike button! Click ‘Enable Dislike Button’ to turn on the new feature!”

This is quite clever and looks exactly like it might be a genuine add-on, the “Enable Dislike Button” link appears exactly where the “Share” button appears on regular posts.

If you click on the link, the same wall post will be posted to all your friends’ walls, meaning that more and more people will be tricked the same way.

This is a scam. No “Dislike” button will be added anywhere.

Many Facebook users have been suggesting for quite a while now that facebook have a “Dislike” button so this scam is probably going to fool quite a few people people.

Please let everyone know about this “enable dislike button” scam and ensure your friends understand that they should be cautious of posts like this put on their walls, even from if they come from their own friends!

If you, or anyone you know, has this message posted on their wall, you can either hide it or mark it as spam. If you mark it as spam it helps Facebook to hopefully become aware of and remove this rogue application.

  1. Another Scam from Face Book? Well this has to be taken seriously as Face Book is getting more complicated in terms of privacy.

  2. As far as I have observed, I have the confidence to say that Facebook is very untouchable, it's one of the best online website system ever made from all times. The security is tightly unbreakable.
