So in short i was checking my email and one of them was from facebook claiming someone updated their facebook status. The odd thing is its one of my accounts and i dont use it so confused i go directly to facebook and look at the account it doesnt appear to have been touched ( at least according to the account im signed into it hasnt been).

so here is the headers does anyone know if this is actually from facebook or not.

But it originated from; SNT0-MC2-F1.Snt0.hotmail.com

[fivealive]

Thank you, its good to know that the email is fake. Still confused on how they knew one of my friends names anyway i have all that stuff listed as private so unless one of my friends has been compromised they shouldn't have been able to get a hold of my friends names. Actually come to think of it even if they got a hold of my friends names and picked one that belonged to me they have no way to email me since my email doesnt even show up to friends.

[fivealive]

So i sent them a message about this before you answered me. Got an automated email back basically thanking me for the feedback here is the headers for that. Seems if im reading it right it says its also originating from hotmail. I will point out my email is a hotmail email.

Help Center: https://www.facebook.com/help/

Thanks,

The Facebook Team

[David H. Lipman]

I didn't say it is fake. There is nothing to conclude that. The headers do show it came from FaceBook but originated from HotMail.

How, I do not know.

In fact, your FaceBook reply shows...

Received: from mx-out.facebook.com ([69.171.232.137]) by BAY0-MC4-F41.Bay0.hotmail.com

Which is consistent with the first email. It is possible there is a cooperative service agreement between HotMail and FaceBook.

[fivealive]

oh ok. i do know you can add your friends from you hotmail contact list.


Either way i did log into the account that this message came from that said it had a status update and their wasnt any activity at all going on which i found odd. so who knows what is going on either way thank you for the help

[fivealive]

i just got another email claiming the exact same message but this time its claiming to be from a different friend like what the hell.

[David H. Lipman]

Create email rules deleting email containing "facebook.com" and "facebookmail.com" if found in the headers.

[fivealive]

So odd thing i just noticed the email is saying these people updated their status about groceries being 30% off. now the odd thing i noticed is that the email message is word for word what i posted from my phone as a status update the other day.


now even though thats the case still dont see why its saying these people are updating their status to that when they obviously arnt.


Also idont know how to make blocking rules in hotmail

[David H. Lipman]

I don't know how either.

Webmail (email through a HTTP web page) is notoriously simplistic leaving the email user with little capabilities. The objective is to use an email client which downloads email from the server and brings it to the email client. Email clients have more capabilities and better filtering and rules based criteria capabilities.

I use Pegasus Mail (freeware for the past 21 years). With it I can create a POP3 rule where it examines the headers and can use regular expressions (in this case simply; *facebook.com*) and if found in the headers then the email is summarily deleted from the server and never even downloaded.

[fivealive]

oh interesting ill have to look into that.

[daledoc1]

Hi, fivealive:

In addition to David's excellent (and far more expert ) suggestions...

Caveat: I don't have a clue about FB and I use a different webmail app (gmail).
Having said that:

I've used Thunderbird email client for years (from the days of Netscape Mail).
It is also free and, because it is open-source, highly-customizable.
You can use it for your ISP or employer mail accounts, and for your webmail accounts (I use it for all 3 types).
For example, on my laptop, I have all 3 of my ISP accounts, my gmail and my work email all set up in TB.
You can easily design filters to automatically exclude/send to junk messages based on any criteria you choose.

I also use a highly powerful anti-spam program called MailWasher Pro 2012. Although the current, robust versions are not free, and although I get hardly any spam, it is extremely helpful for reviewing, scanning and sorting incoming messages while they are still out on the servers, before they are even downloaded to my system. With it, I can efficiently preview and process 100s of daily messages I receive from legit senders (and I can trash the occasional spam safely, before it gets to my computer). It's probably the single most useful productivity app I use and I hold 2 lifetime licenses. B/C there is no Mac version, it is a major reason why I've stuck with PC platform all these years. Anyway, if I sound like a fan girl, I expect I probably am.


TB + MWP (+ a healthy dose of suspicion) is a VERY powerful combo for safe and efficient emailing.

JMHO, of course.
