Facebook scam doesn't lead to Ikea $1,000 gift card

Have a Facebook pal dangling before you the unbelievable opportunity to get a $1,000 gift card by being among the first (you fill in the blank) fans? Don't do it.

One of the great things about social networking is the amazing reach it can have when people take an interest in something they see. People are interested in Ikea. They're interested in getting something for free -- and $1,000 is a lot to get for free. So, naturally word spreads fast.
