Be careful out there...
I received a Facebook friend request this week from a good friend I've been connected with on the social media service for several years.
That's odd, I thought so I emailed him and asked if he had really sent the request.
No, he replied, and warned, it's a fake. Don't open it. He also sent along the excellent article below.
Fake friends requests are a scam, Jennifer Folly reports on usatoday.com.

Thanks for the good advice, Andy.
