Submission + - No Facebook security against scripted spamming (facebook.com)
drusher writes: Hackers using external extrusion to get FB usernames and passwords then launch high-speed scripted login/spam attacks from remote computers. Facebook security is sorely lacking in this area, resulting in many FB users being spammed and fooled into logging into fake FB login pages to collect more user accounts. Facebook should be correlating login attempts against the source IP, and flagging multiple logins to different accounts from the same source IP during short time periods to block the source IP at the server ingress via monitored automation.
