Is the facebook scandal real?

Question

so on facebook i've been getting a million messages saying that facebook is overcrowded and if you don't send this to 15 people (proving that you are active) in two weeks, your account will be deleted. I think this is just a hoax, but i don't want to lose my facebook! so is it fake or real?

Answer 1

This is a hoax.  And it is as old as the Internet has been commercialized.  In my experience, only two kinds of people perpetuate this kind of hoax: (1) the ones who are sociopaths who like to create cruel and unnecessary panic and chaos, and (2) the ones who are gullible to believe these sociopaths and thus propagate these rumors.

Answer 2

someone with no life made it up. it's bull ****

Answer 3

Total fake

Answer 4

Ugh, so fake. I can't beleive people beleive it. It just starts shitt like myspace did.

Answer 5

Its fake, just like everything else like that is.  They log when you log in, if they wanted to clean up facebook, why not just get rid of accounts that havent been logged into in x number of days?  Please remember this the next time you get a forward that says you'll be hit by a moving bus if you dont forward this to 1.35 million people in 5 seconds.

Answer 6

False Chain Letter

Recently, some users received a message claiming that Facebook is becoming overpopulated and suggesting that accounts will be deleted. This is a false message and not from Mark Zuckerberg or Facebook. The message can be safely disregarded or deleted. We apologize for any confusion.
