Facebook has just ripped all your mobile phone contacts

Post by dreamizm » Thu Aug 11, 2011 11:37 am

All phone numbers from your phone are now on facebook! TO REMOVE: at top right of the screen, click on ACCOUNT, click on EDIT FRIENDS. Then on the left side of screen, click CONTACTS. You will see that all the phone numbers from your cell phone (FB friends or not) are published. Go to the right screen and click on "this page", then hit REMOVE. Repost this on your status, so your friends can remove their (your) numbers and thus prevent abuse.

yeah. I don't even have a phone any more yet they can pull my contacts? Absolutely not on.

edit: ugh I'm being stupid - doesn't have phone contacts, just numbers for people on my friends list who put their numbers on facebook.

What?! How does that even work? I'm assuming this is only when you use FB on one of those new fancy phones.

Is this the only way FB has numbers?
Someone help an old luddite to understand, I mean FB can't just magic people's numbers out of mid air...?

Post this status if you have had your phone number put on Facebook, have cancer or know somebody who knows somebody who has cancer. 98% of you wont, the other 2% will believe any old bullshit.
