Facebook Flaw Can Trick You To "Like" An IFrame that Follows the Mouse
A Facebook flaw can trick you to force-"Like" a page with a floating iframe that follows your mouse cursor in a page.
FailMania.com features viral YouTube Videos, and uses a trick that forces users to click the Facebook "Like" button for their page.
A fake video image is on the center of the page. When you hover the mouse on the video, notice a 2px by 2px floating iframe that follows the mouse. That iframe contains the Facebook Like Social Plugin.
Therefore, when you click the fake image of the video, you also like the FailMania page, and the page link automatically appears on the News Feed of friends.
After that, the real embedded YouTube video is shown on the screen, and gets played.
When you go back to Facebook and view your profile, you'll see that you "Liked" that FailMania.com page.
Here's a sample page: http://www.failmania.com/schlange-beisst-in-brust/
