here is excerpt from the article:
"Rutberg isn't sure how criminals got his password, but he thinks he probably did fall for a phishing e-mail. Because Facebook regularly contacts its users through e-mail, and includes links in those e-mails to login pages, the format is ripe for phishers. It's easy to imitate Facebook e-mails and simply send users clicking to a look-a-like login page that steal passwords."

Facebook has never contacted me through email. There is always more to the story.

We just have to be vigilent. The people that perpetrate these scams must be brilliant. Why can't they just use that talent for GOOD?!!!! Amazes me.
