This is the link and description came with STYLE-1 post. Please never click on it

Initially, it was asked me the permission to access most of the information, like pages, joined groups details, like a mobile app "App Name:Xperia" (It is a mobile name.)














I gave the permission to check what will happen.....but to protect my friends from this SPAM post. i decided to change the privacy setting of the post like this (Only Me).

















Then it shown me a counting animation...it started from 7 or 6..i don't remember it. (It is a trick done by the creators of  app to make us wait until they upload the pictures to our accounts to create the spam post, and post it in every pages, groups,wall....). It is mainly attacking the groups.











So, this is how this spam post is working....
The link for the spam post  app but please don't click on it.

You may ask me "How to remove it?"
It is not that difficult as before. Just go to account settings of your Facebook account. Select Apps. Find the App called "Xperia". Then remove it by clicking the "x" sign next to it. But don't forget to tick "Delete all your Xperia......".
