Facebook, the social networking site, continues to be hit by fraudsters and scammers looking to take advantage of the site's younger subscribers.
The latest ruse is a note asking subscribers to hit the link, FBAction.net.
This link takes you to a page designed to look like a legitimate Facebook page --- classic phishing --- which will then record your login information and, immediately locks you out of your account.
Once inside your account, the scammer sends your friends a message to click on the FBAction link, which records their login details and locks them out.
Facebook is reportedly trying to deal with the problem.
