Picola Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 I just got told that you can find out people who have been into your account, by using the following stepsGo to Privacy settings, go to Block List, type in "automation labs" in the Person box, Click BlockYou then get a list of people that have been into and hacked your account. I got 44 and blocking them all nowI don't quite understand why as some of them are from USA and look boring as hell. But Im doing it anyway!!

Picola Posted February 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 I dont get why they would go into our accounts, like why us? Maybe through a group people have joined for instance.Or the whole thing is bollox and the automation labs bit just searches random people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naif Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 LOL seen this numerous time on facebook today already.Automation Labs are just bots (from facebook) that gather information about how you use it etc.Nothing like how you've described it Pic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ad.... Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Voila A new privacy chain message is circulating across Facebook, which states that there are a handful of people who some how have gained access to your Facebook profile and are now spying on what you do. The reality is that this rumor is completely false, however thousands of users are now circulating the message.The chain message suggests users to go to the “Privacy Settings” –> “Block List” and enter “Automation Labs” in the “Person” field. This opens up a pop up window with around 20 people listed. You are then advised to block all these people one after the other.The exact message being copy/pasted reads as follows:… enter ‘automation labs’. A list of approx 20 people you dont even know will come up. Block each one individually. These people have access to your facebook account/profile and spy on what you do….This is true…I’ve done it.Contrary to what is being spread, these people are not some spies monitoring your activities on Facebook, these are just the names of users who are associated with “Automation Labs” on Facebook. Facebook’s block option works in a way that if you enter a name or phrase that does not exactly match a profile, Facebook fetches all the profiles that have some association with the phrase that you entered. So what is really going on is that once a user enters Automation Labs and clicks block, Facebook fetches these individuals and asks you, which of these people do you want to block.Not convinced yet ? Just type in your surname in the “Person” field instead of “Automation Labs” and you would be displayed with a list of people, all having your surname. This is Facebook’s way of asking exactly which individual do you want to block, in case the specified name isn’t precise enough.The individuals associated with Automation Labs have no special access to your profile, just like the people sharing your surname.Just have a look at the comments in the image displayed below to understand how scared Facebook users really are. The fact that Automation Labs is a IT related organization is further fueling the rumors. Scanning the profiles of individuals associated with Automation Labs reveals that all these guys are IT related, which becomes yet another proof of the fact that they must be spies.We would ask our fans and readers to calm down, relax and let your friends know the reality of the situation, instead of participating blindly in this scarelore.

Picola Posted February 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Maybe Facebook has now removed the whole thing, after its been circulating about the place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfbr Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 the people who've found none have simply not used the quotation marks when entering it at a name.Also "automation labs" is a company name. The list of 40 or so people are actually employees of automation labs lol... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfbr Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Example: Search for "Halfords" and you'll basically find a list of people who work for halfords !I've just tried it and found 4 people who I know that currently or have previously worked for halfords.
