The “Be Like Bill” meme has been going viral through Facebook recently. They are pretty funny but by adding this Bobla Facebook app to create your own story/share it on Facebook, you could be unexpectedly also be exposing yourself to a security risk.
As ABC News, Technology reports today:
…the Better Business Bureau, or BBB, says you should read the terms of privacy first and make sure you’re OK with what it states.
The meme’s creator, Bobla, says in its terms, “You will allow us to use, edit your content with our service permanently, no limit and no recover.”
In some cases, the BBB says content could contain viruses that can damage your computer, access your Facebook profile or even find ways to get your credit card and bank account numbers.
If you have already created your mem story and so added this Facebook app, you can remove it by going to your Facebook settings > Apps and click the “X” for this app specifically.
