Somehow, someway Facebook has allowed at least 25 applications with such names as peeppeep-pro, profile-check-online and stalk-my-profile that claim to be able to tell you who has been viewing your Facebook profile. All of which have been identified as SPAM.

If you install this app, you will simply be taken through of series of convincing looking set-up screens but now matter how many times you “Continue” you never activate any actual application that tells you who’s viewing your profile. Instead, you’re pushed through to other Facebook Apps earning the creator profits and giving you nada.

Other versions of this application creates a photo montage of infected users and posts it tagging the users to add to its more “authentic” look.

Facebook has since removed the apps but they may still appear. If they should arise again, remember this: Facebook has no official functionality to see who has been viewing your profile. If you see an application like this, it’s scam to simply generate revenue for ad affiliates with clicks and hits.

Thanks to Trend Micro for this information.
