A Las Vegas man called Spam King had faced federal fraud charges for allegedly luring Facebook users to third-party websites and collecting personal data for spam list.

He used to trick people into revealing their login details which he then used to access half a million accounts and used this to send spam to other Facebook users.

He also used to target the users with bogus "friend requests" for distributing spam.
