Facebook spam emails
2 Answers
I only have a few "friends" on Facebook, in fact I dislike the site. Lately, on junk mail, I keep receiving mails allegedly from my "friends" which are spam, always with a link to a suspicious site, of course I have deleted them instantly. Why is this happening? The email addresses are not those of my "friends", contacted a couple asking if they had been hacked? They new nothing about this.

After you have deleted the emails make sure you also delete your deleted emails folder.
