  2. "Someone, Somewhere...is posting Secret Stashes, these look real, because they do IN FACT come from the MW Application.
    Ok, I understand that so whats the problem...?
    This individual, has changed the JS script of those wall posts. If you're a computer wiz, you would know how this is done. He/She changes the link that you click on, the little one below/right of the post that says, "get your loot". The script prevents the link of the "PICTURE" of that post from being changed. Its all SAFE by clicking on the picture of this post. Not everyone is exposed, only those on this "hackers" friends list are. Any one who clicks the "link" on his secret stash posts,enables their FB session cookie to be transferred instantaneously to the "hackers" computer. Mind you, he/she can only then go into your MW account, because they have your facebook session cookie. If you are logged off, this can not happen. That is why this "hacker" uses the secret stash link to do it. No one can get into the MW app without first being signed on into Facebook. This game is hosted VIA Social Network Sites. The only way in is VIA logging into the Social Network. So, by having your Facebook session cookie, the "hacker" then jumps through, "your hoop" sort of speak, to gain entrance into your account. This is to take all your loot, nothing more, the "hacker" does not want anything else, and does not care about anything else. ZYNGA is well aware of this, and has known about this issue, because it did happen once already. THIS IS A FACEBOOK ISSUE, NOT ZYNGA's!! Not all problems are ZYNGA's. FaceBook has been working on correcting this issue.

  3. I asked around about that, because it didn't sound right to me. Jennifer directed me to an old post hers, this apparently happened nearly a year ago. I understand it wasn't easy to accomplish even then and has probably long since been fixed.
