CNET News: Facebook sues men for allegedly phishing, spamming

‘The defendants are accused of launching at least four spam campaigns over the last couple of years, the latest in the last three months being responsible for nearly three-fourth of all spam on the site, according to the suit. The latest “escalated attack” included spam offering a colon cleanser, fake messages purporting to show a video of the recipient and offers for recipients to make money through a fake “Google Campaign.” Clicking on the spam typically sends a user through various marketing sites before landing them on a page that prompts for their Facebook log in information.’
