The Doobie Brothers once sang a song “What A Fool Believes”, and when it comes to Facebook it seems there are many of them including yours truly. One amazing thing about social media is how hoaxes spread like wildfire. All it takes is for someone with a devious side to post something that will be picked up by other users, and it just gets viral. I guess when you are just sitting there scrolling through your feed, anything that looks legit, becomes legit whether its true or not.
Fortunately for us all there are people who are vigilant to keep us from treading into the social darkness of someones wicked sense of humor. People who perpetrate such things should be ashamed of themselves but as PT Barnum once said there is a fool born every minute…sometimes every 30 seconds online.
My friends, don’t be foolish. Be smart about what you see and where you see it coming from. Don’t distribute anything that looks dubious and always be on guard. Enjoy the times you have online but be careful.

I find it really bad people do not research what they are sharing, or sometimes more importantly where it has come from. Things can be photoshopped, right wing groups use images to cover up a more sinister meaning, and people just share it, I find alot of them in poor taste. The Facebook is going to share all your posts for $5.99 has given me a lot of giggles, I have had a friend saying they can do it at a special discounted rate of $3.49

When I saw a lot of postings on this I checked this site my boss shared to us before to check if something is true or just a rumor. Snopes.com and it says there it is not true. So I shared this info on my wall still a lot post this same message.
