I think your definition of scam is a bit off...because every app in the app store would be qualified as a "scam".
- thrownaway2424 12y agoWhen a Facebook connected app or site has access to "your profile" that includes your friends list. Anyway as I can see that you failed to read for comprehension I must reiterate that allowing next-door to read your Facebook profile in no way authenticates you to the site, nor does it provide them with your profile picture.
- mynewwork 12y agoSlight correction - it has access to your friends who have also used the facebook login for that site. If you're the first person to login, the site will get an empty list. Only the set of your friends who have previously used the service, will show up if the service queries fb for your friends.
- arjie 12y agoI was confused by this too. It said 'Or Login With Facebook' but when I clicked that it only turned into 'Facebook connected' and I still had to enter an email and password. That was confusing and I considered stopping. I went through with it anyway, but that part was strange. Why do you do that?
