How to avoid being Facebook Cloned

[adamtemp64]

After seeing a few mates accounts cloned I found this article and thought I would share it here as well

I urge all Facebook usres to review their settings to prevent otherse being cloned.

Once the facebook Cloner has the Targets friend list saved they can keep trying to setup fake accounts and target the friends names they already have, remember even if you change profile and cover photo after an attack they can still use the new ones on any other attemmpts as facebook lets them be copied .

Just been following the cloned friend on FB. Worrying thing is, after he warned everyone...he was cloned again...and then again. Currently there are three of 'him' running around FB offering money to those who join him!
