WARNING: "Like" Facebook Application Is Not Real

This morning we’ve been receiving numerous notifications about a misleading application that is spreading around that attempts to replicate Facebook’s like functionality. Users first find out about the application, called “Like”, as they receive a notification which says “Your Friend Likes your photo”. The user then clicks the link and installs the application which promptly sends notifications to all of that users’ friends.

While we’re not sure what the developers behind this application were trying to accomplish besides building up a large user base, we don’t recommend installing the application.
