Update Zoo World Scam Page

We wrote a report on this page yesterday and since then we have looked into it a bit further.

After listening to a bit of bashing from it's owner we were finally given an address that their application takes you to off of Facebook. 

Now according to their owner all this application does is ask you for an email address. 

Wrong it does more then that as you can see here. 

They also claim that no one can see your information but you. That is also not true. This page uses a free website host and here is their Terms of Service.

When you become a member of this site you also give your information to the Respective Application Developer, affiliate, or business partner and their authorized representatives.

We asked repeatably why must you use an application on Facebook to use this site and this is what we got.

Now I'm sorry but to do an application on Facebook you have to go to apps and make this how did they not know what they were doing and that they thought it was going to be just a link. 

And yet later I was told how Facebook had given them permission to do this. 

And once it was done and it wasn't what they thought they did not remove it?

Ok so what was it you didn't know but you did. 

Hmmmmm

In our eyes this is still a scam there is no legitimate reason for having to install an application to go to an off Facebook page. 

All they needed was a link, why an app?

There are many other groups on Facebook that give away things and do not require something like this.

This was posted after our bad review of their page

And still is claiming you only need a email address. 

I think they need to take another look at their permissions.

Since we've written this we have been threatened with being reported ourselves to being sued by lawyers. 

We will stand by what we post here.  

If  you wish to provide your information to an off site page instead of using many many other legitimate groups and pages here on Facebook that is your choice and your the one risking you personal information. 

We still advise against it.

Zoo World Scam App 04-22-11

There is a scam Application Page claiming to give you a free Octopus. 

This page tells you to go to their app and it will take you to their off FB page where you will receive this item.

http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=162570977132281&sk=wall

If you did this you need to go to your account and then to your privacy setting.

Go to the bottom to you 

Apps and Websites and Remove this App.

You should never have to give an Application Permission for something like this it is a scam.

Now on our Facebook we reported a Real Giveaway of this same Octopus and this one was for real. 

I received one myself. 

In this one all that was asked was you made the person your friends so she could send it to you and that you liked their group. This one was not a scam like the one above.
