I’m not sure what the bad guys want with a bunch of Facebook user account credentials, but phishing scams seem to be hitting the site. Scott Fish notes that some users are seeing Wall posts that contain links to phishing sites to gather Facebook credentials.

The site is still up and active, here is a screenshot.
Why would bad guys want Facebook accounts? The same reason they want Myspace accounts. They use these accounts to push traffic to spyware and malware sites....we must remember traffic is money to bad guys. In addition, bad guys have used Myspace accounts to push users to porn sites and other scam sign-up sites (Macy card crap).
