Yesterday, the Missus freaked out. She told me she had been tagged in a photo by a friend on Facebook - only thing was that that friend had died some time ago.

I was septic, but had a look anyway, and sure enough: There was a new picture on his timeline (posted by his account as far as I could tell), an ad for clocks, and all of his friends tagged in it.

First of all: How is it possible at all? AFAIK, standard account "hacking" entails capturing a persons login details from a fake login site. But a dead person can't login, so clearly that's not the case here....

Second: What do they expect to happen: All of the friends rushing to their site to buy a clock that they didn't know they needed?
