I gave the guy all those details and pics while authorizing the app! There's no way too see those things without being my friend.
Speaking of which, how many of your FB friends would grant ~impersonation~ rights to an app without lots of thoughts? And - could that app then, using your _friend_ as proxy, play this particular game of fear with you?
I don't have facebook. Anyone mind writing a tldr?
It's a facebook app. It asks your permission to access pretty much everything on your profile and when you finally accept it cuts to a fullscreen, high production video of an incredibly creepy actor on a computer in a really dingy room. It then cuts to the computer screen and shows the creepy guy scrolling through your profile page in a very realistic manner as well as clicking through some of your photo's and friend…

What are they promoting?
There really was nothing in the clip that indicated any form of a product or brand. It could be a movie teaser or a teaser for a TV show and if it is, I for one will watch it.

This is a genius idea. I'm sure it will go viral and everyone (including their mother) will give this site a test drive. I can only assume that it is designed to do one thing - data mine.
Removed the app before they pull that one....
Funny, my hosts file seems to interrupt the flow of this prank slightly. We'll see how my s.o. reacts to it, but on my machine it does absolutely nothing. In case you're wondering what is in my hosts file: 127.0.0.1 www.facebook.com 127.0.0.1 facebook.com 127.0.0.1 connect.facebook.net 127.0.0.1 facebook.net 127.0.0.1 fbcdn.net 127.0.0.1 www.fbcdn.net 0.0.0.0 badge.facebook.com 0.0.0.0 blog.facebook.com 0.0.0.0 en-gb…
You're better off using a browser extension or other technique. Facebook uses a lot of subdomains like static.ak.fbcdn.net and there's no way you can include them all in your list.
This actually just freezes for me/nothing happens after I click "Connect with Facebook". Chromium 12.0.742.112 (90304) Ubuntu 10.10.

I had the same. I looked at it in chrome inspector and it turned out the reason was that I didn't allow the 2nd set of access rights, because it said it was optitional.
