A post circulating on Facebook claiming the company will begin charging users to keep their profile private is a hoax, the company says.
The post, which many users have shared, encourages users to copy and paste it if they want to be exempt from any fees.
Facebook has identified the post as a hoax. The post has been circulating around the Internet since 2009.
Sharing the post could exposure users to future fraud.
