There is a warning on Facebook which it appears has gone viral. People are seeing the following message and re-posting it as their status:
FB friends, may I ask you to do something for me please: I want to stay PRIVATELY connected with you. However, with the recent changes in FB, the public can now see activities in any wall. Unfortunately, we cannot change this setting by ourselves because Facebook has configured it this ...way. So I need your help. Only you can do this for me. Please place your mouse over my name above (do not click), a window will appear, now move the mouse on “FRIENDS" (also without clicking), then down to "Settings", click here and a list will appear. REMOVE the CHECK on "COMMENTS & LIKE" by clicking on it. By doing this, my activity amongst my friends and my family will no longer become public. Many thanks! You might want to get your friends to do this for you too.
It is in fact a hoax ( http://techie-buzz.com/scams/stay-privately-connected-facebook.html ) so if you see it don't be sucked in.
