Check if a friend has deleted you on Facebook

Internet scams seem to aim at our most primordial instincts. Some of the noteworthy lures have been:

-- Sex. How many "sex videos" can all the celebrities in the world really make?
-- Fear of losing one’s health: thus there are thousands of “Canadian” pharmacy sites (in China) pushing all kinds of questionable medications.
-- Making fast wealth: which brought us those 419 scams that seem to contribute significantly to Nigeria's annual gross domestic product.

And now, there's a new one: the fear that one of your friends on Facebook no longer like you.

Unless you’ve been living deep in the forest with only a dial-up Internet connection for the last five years, you’ve probably seen this before. The app must “protect” its content, so it requires you to play a game or “Save $$$ on Auto Insurance.” That isn’t exactly a computer security authentication scheme that’s on the test for Certified Information Systems Security Professionals.
