Facebook question

Hi. Not sure if this is the place to post this...

Recently, there has been what looks like a bot in Facebook that asks users to go to Pastebin and do some things with codes or else my account would be disabled by May 25.

Is this just a bot playing a prank or are accounts really going to get disabled on May 25? Just want to make sure. Thanks.

Have you tried to contact the staff directly? If it's a bot, it's likely trying to squeeze info out of several members and not just you. You could also start a topic about it (on Facebook) and see what others have to say.

Ok, thanks again. I'll try to ask around Facebook for more info on this.

At first I paid little concern to this thing, but later more and more of my friends have been "infected" by it. Their accounts are tagging me and asking to do those things on pastebin. I suspect that the bot latches onto a person's account once you follow what it says..

Try to unfollow, or as a last resort, unfriend him/her. I suspect that their PC have been infected by malware, so you're getting these spam messages with garbled English.
