Katie is just the one i clicked on, but it inserted my friend's name into each. Anyone else seen this problem or have any idea how to stop it?

heres my story concerning it.
i use a mac, which people will say is SUPER IMPOSSIBLE to get viruses, but in reality its not, but this was unrelated. basically i was chillin at my comp, on face book, i dont remember how it happened but i opened a new page or something and it came up as the sign in page, which i thought was weird cause i was already signed in i thought. so i sign in. soon after, same story as you. reason being for me, i was being a dumbass and didnt stop and think, shit this is one of those sign in scams. so afterwards when i would try to sign in, itd be like your password was compromised or some shit and i hadda change it which fixed it. what you need to do is make sure everytime you sign in at the top of the page it says http://www.facebook.com/etc,etc,. that way you know its facebook your signing into, not someting else
All times are Eastern (-5)
