RE: Facebook loophole reveals names, pictures with sign-on errors

@Peter Perry , with search you got people's name and pictures, but not their e-mail addresses. S[pc]ammer get their e-mail addresses, but probably not their name and pictures. This Facebook's "features" allow s[pc]ammer to match the e-mail addresses they got with name and pictures and also to confirm the existence of the e-mail addresses (allows spammer to create a good quality list of e-mail addresses from random e-mail addresses list).
