Facebook gets spammed

Even the almighty Facebook is susceptible to viruses. The worldwide social networking site was attacked by spam over the past few days.

Thousands of users complained of seeing pornography on their newsfeeds. Facebook has an idea of who is responsible, and its not the hacktivist group Anonymous.

Legal action will be taken against the suspect they believe to have created the spam. He has not yet been named.

Facebook has vowed to step up security to make sure this weakness is not exposed again.
