Received this message this morning
Be careful: I got a message from you or it shown on your wall here.. Please tell all the contacts in your messenger list not to accept friendship request from Andrea Wilson. She is a hacker and has the system connected to your Facebook account. If one of your contacts accepts it, you will also be hacked, so make sure that all your friends know it. Thanks. Forwarded as received. Hold your finger down on the message. At the bottom in the middle it will say forward. Hit that then click on the names of those in your list and it will send to them THIS Is REAL.
is this a genuine message or a hoax ?
No, this message is not real and is simply a hoax you should not trust. These Facebook scams have been floating around the social network for years now. Initially, these fake messages were most likely created as a prank targeting certain individuals. However, because users kept passing on the bogus alert, these hoaxes spread like a wildfire.
In other cases, users may encounter fake claims about a spreading virus that can destroy their computers. Additionally, there are several fake promotions that claim too-good-to-be-true discounts and offers for popular items. To find out more about all types of scams and viruses you may encounter while using social media, please check the Facebook virus guide.
