Facebook Account Confirmation

Apparently, scammers are sending out chat messages advising Facebook users to "confirm" their identity or account by clicking on a particular link or risk having their account suspended or even terminated. Beware of clicking such links because those lead to fake facebook pages.

What do These Fake Facebook Account Confirmation Pages Do?

The landing pages are often deceitfully represented as an official facebook page where users are advised to confirm their facebook account/identity or their facebook account will be disabled or closed within 24 hours.


landing page of the fake facebook account confirmation messages

These pages/links appear to be phishing sites and pages. They solicit usernames and passwords and worse, even credit card numbers supposedly as a means for Facebook users to confirm their accounts.

Beware of giving such information. Once scammers get hold of  your passwords and credit card details, it is least likely that they will not exploit those information.

The link provided by the first message below, for example, appears as a Facebook security page but with a different, non facebook URL that uses a free domain extension cx.cc. The information/ details asked for by the form in this link are also already submitted by you to Facebook and so there is no need for you to re enter your personal information.
Last Warning: Your Facebook account will be turned off because someone has reported you. Please do re-confirm your account security.

WARNING : Your account is reported to have violated the policies that are considered annoying or insulting Facebook users. Until we (http://www.facebook.com/security) system will disable your account within 24 hours if you do not do the reconfirmation.

If you still want to use Facebook, Please confirm your account below:

    I have never have and never intended to have ANY FACEBOOK ASCCOUNT. Despite of this I have received TWO (2) emails from facebook to my email address (2 days apart) stating that I should confirm my Facebook Registration (which I've never done). Of course I will NOT confirm it, however I wanted to let Facebook to know about this. However, while at Facebook Security there is an option to give feedback without having an account, it DOES NOT WORK. It does seem to be cuccessfully collect email address and birthday, but it does not bring up the complaint form it promises... Does anybody use this Facbook thing still? If so, why?
