A Self-XSS scam on Facebook tricks you into compromising your account by claiming to provide a way to log into someone else's Facebook account, or some other kind of reward, after pasting a special code or link into your web browser. You might see this message on a friend's timeline after their own account was compromised by the scammer. Never click a link on Facebook that goes to a website you don't know and trust.
This kind of scam can often use your timeline to spread itself to your friends and may also include links to malicious software or suspicious websites. Learn how to recognize scams on Facebook to protect your account from being compromised.
