Few social network members know that, from about March-July 2009, new registrants to Facebook and Twitter were, halfway through registering, required to enter their primary (yahoo, etc.) email address AND PASSWORD on a page that exactly mimicked their primary email login page, identically copying those fonts, logos, etc. Only if you checked the URL would you know that you’re still working on the Facebook/Twitter server & that you were about to surrender your primary email account, password, and all its contents, including private, financial data, credit card numbers, purchases & receipts, etc. This mimicking was clearly an attempt to deceive and defraud new, naive registrants and posed a serious ID theft danger, not to mention loss of privacy. Later, they made it “optional” and added it was for your “convenience,” to copy over your address book, but that mammoth security gap still exists and has never been publicly exposed. I doubt those registrants know their email accounts are open to others. I complained to the appropriate govt. agencies & the media, but no one seemed to care.
