IGNORE THEM, do NOT click on the link This is what the email says: Quote: In an effort to make your online experience safer and more enjoyable, Facebook will be implementing a new login system that will affect all Facebook users. These changes will offer new features and increased account security. The link is not to Facebook, it sounds like it will be a virus, or similar.

Accounts that do not submit the updated account agreement by the deadline will have restricted. Please unzip the attached file and run "agreement.exe" by double-clicking it. Thanks, The Facebook Team :lol: It says it came from "auto+bwdzdezdaxs @ facebook.com" but looking at the email properties it came from "dumbbellqr9 @ sme-news.ru" somewhere in Rumania God knows what that 'exe' file would do to someones computer !

It is interesting to look at some of them, to see what type of things are being sent out.
