I have recently notice that there is an increasing number of fake FaceBook profile's adding people as friends. Do NOT ADD People you don't know as friends. If you do, you are risking your personal information being collected for malicious purposes.Do not assume someone is really who they say they are just because you share a lot of mutual friends.
Characteristic of a Facebook Phantom Profile
They join a network (ex. __ College) and mass friend request all the people in that network, in alphabetical order.
Their Wall will mostly have:" 'Phantom's Name' &__ are now friends"and little social interaction, if any at all.
Usually doesn't have any photo albums (not tagged in pics or videos)
If they have a profile pic, they tend to beWhite Women
In too many networks: (ex Scranton University, 00,01,02,03,04,05,05,07 etc) or(CCNY, Columbia, NYU, Hunter, Queens, John Jay, Baruch)
Who are these Phantoms?
I am not too sure yet, but here are my hypothesis:
They can be people wanting to steal information
Companies spying on their employees(If you come to work hungover on Monday , If you're boss is your FB friend they will definitely see those pics of you partying from Sunday night. ) Also FB friend can track if you are really doing work. When you leave comments & statuses, the time is recorded for everyone to see.
Cyber Police trying to crackdown on crime or surveillance of people in a network.
People trying to promote events or products to a particular network (So far none of the CCNY Phantoms have done this)
Some Known Phantoms attacking the CCNY Network.
Phantoms take real photos of people & create profiles. If you are friends with anyone of these people, de-friend them asap.
Everyone, please review your privacy settings and update them to fit your standards.
Do not add strangers as friends
Never put your home or work addresses on your profile
Be wary of putting your contact info on your profile
Label friends into categories.(College Friends, Family, Co-workers, ex- wives, )
Display certain info to certain groups (ex. Only friends that I have marked as 'WCCR' can view my cell # on my profile page. For others it is blank. You can do the same for status, TAGGED 'pic & videos' as well.)
Do Not Broadcast Your Life (if you have a status saying 'I am going to buy __ today' 'Hungry getting a snack' or 'I'm going to Mexico next week' A thief will use this info to plan out when to steal, rob or burglarize you.)
Do not just add any application because most apps are able to access your personal info on FB. Many apps are third party & FB has no control over them. Please check your application settings.
Whenever I find more Phantoms, I'll put them on blast here. Also if any of you find Phantoms leave a comment with the phantoms name and link to their profile.

In daylight and all of its glory, it's quite controversial for anyone to strip completely nude on a public street. But Erykah Badu, like many true artists, is always controversial, though less extreme in most cases. However, there is a method in her madness; Erykah Badu peels away the exterior layers (literally) to reveal the truth about herself and others. No matter how uncomfortable it makes us, the truth expressed through this video is illustrated in a clever and profound way. Ready for the juicy details?
What really happened?
Well, Badu was filmingthe video to her new single, "Window Seat," from her newly released album, New Amerykah Part Two: Return of the Ankh.
The setting is Badu's hometown, Dallas, Texas - downtown, Elm Street, Dealey Plaza, approaching the site of President John F. Kennedy's assassination in 1963.
Erykah and her posse do not have city permits to film at this location, but she isn't afraid of a little guerrilla filming!
In a single-take video, Erykah is filmed removing her clothing while walking toward the location of JFK's assassination. She strips off her clothing until she is nude, and then "BANG!!" A rifle sounds and Erykah collapses to the ground, blue blood dripping from her lifeless body, pooling on the street and spelling "groupthink." (read 1984, by George Orwell.)
People stare in amazement - the crowd goes wild...to some extent. (charges were filed.)
What's the reason for this madness?
Badu is hoping to catalyze a discussion of "groupthink." Her video is protesting the assassination of the individual. The video ends with these words:
“They who play it safe, are quick to assassinate what they do not understand. They move in packs, ingesting more and more fear with every act of hate on one another. They feel most comfortable in groups – less guilt to swallow. They are us. This is what we have become. Afraid to respect the individual...”
Erykah further explains her reasoning behind the video:
“I tied it in a way that compared the [JFK] assassination to the character assassination one would go through after showing his or her self completely,” she said. “That’s exactly the action I wanted to display.”
More to come?
Will the Dallas city attorney charge Erykah Badu with a crime?
...probably not.
Will people REALLY get the message that the artists seeks to convey?
