Beware! It’s a Cyber World – Facebook Start Charging Due to New Profile Changes: Explanation

The recent message about Facebook start charging after introducing new profile changes is just a kind of 'Reborn Hoax'. Such message made their way on Facebook many times in the past; but all of those messages proved as ‘HOAX’ like the latest one circulating on social media networks, including Facebook and Twiter, since Facebook announces new features in recent F8 conference in San Francisco.

Facebook itself didn’t take too long to kill this Hoax. The company has made it clear that it has no such plans. 


Facebook Sign Up: It's Free and always will be.




"A rumour on the internet caught our attention. We have no plans to charge for Facebook. It's free and always will be," the company posted on its official page on Facebook, that has over 53 million fans. 

In early 2010, the rumour circulated that Facebook will charge its users$14.99 per month. Once again in July 2011 the message with the same wording, like in the most recent message, was being circulated on Facebook. But both of these messages proved HOAX later on.
