Facebook Hands Cease and Desist to USocial

A little over 2 months ago, I wrote a blog article on an online company named USocial, that will help you build your Facebook friends list for a fee. At that time, I wrote what a bad idea it was because even though it did help you build your list, it did not allow you to build real connections with “friends.” Well if you ignored everything I said and decided to give it a try anyway, your account is coming to an end.

USocial has been served a Cease and Desist order by Facebook, for violating the user rights of the online Social Networking Mega Platform. According to Facebook, the process of making a profit from their profiles is strictly prohibited. Facebook also says they have given the cease and desist order because USocial “violates its rights by sending spam, using web tools to harvest pages, getting login names and by accessing accounts that did not belong to the marketing firm.”

Obviously, Turbo Social Media was not the only one to find something fishy with the whole USocial friend buying process. Unfortunately too many people in our society are eager to make a quick buck, even when it violates the rules of others.
