Your phone # and your friends' are listed on Facebook!

Someone posted this on their status - I checked and YUP! Went and changed that in a hurry!

**********************************************

Your phone numbers are listed in FB for everyone to see.
Wanna see? Click Account, then Edit Friends. On the left side, click on phonebook. I just checked it myself and have everyone's mobile and land phone number. TO CORRECT THIS - go to ...Account, ...then ... Privacy Settings,... ............then... Customize Settings. Set... your phone numbers to Only Me instead of Everyone or Friends

I think I am safe.. I never put my numbers on the internet.

Mine was already set to "friends only" - and it only listed phone number for 18 people, so I suspect most already have their privacy set correctly.

luvofallhorses - it may take it from public sources, like the phone book, so you might want to check your settings just to be sure.

I am good.

luvofallhorses - if one of your friends posts on FB from a mobile phone, their mobile # gets plugged into the FB phone listing. Automatically.

I heard about this a while ago and I don't even have a mobile phone/cell phone so unless I typed it in they can't get my phone number which I would never do anyway. My privacy settings are for friends only.

This is why you need to check your settings everytime FB updates something...

This App should also be used

NOTE: The programmer has to update the app to work with the latest FB, as FB changed very recently... I had it for the last FB version & it worked great!
Its only one guy writing the program, so please bear with him, as he also has a day job & life... but as soon as its up, he'll notify everyone... So join his page too

The only way your phone # show is if YOU put your numbers in the "personal information" sections of your profile.
