I'm seeing credible reports about a virus spreading via facebook's messaging system. The subject line in an infected message is something like "You look awesome in this new movie". When you click the link you get prompted to upgrade your flash player. At this point malicious s/ware is installed on your computer. The software turns your computer into a (cyber) zombie that will then participate in net attacks against other sites against your will.
Forewarned is forearmed.
