[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif][b]Facebook has said it believes there are now more than 83 million illegitimate accounts on the social network.[/b][/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]In [url="http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1326801/000119312512325997/d371464d10q.htm#tx371464_14"]company filings published this week[/url], it said 8.7% of its 955 million active accounts broke its rules.[/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]Duplicate profiles - belonging to already registered users - made up 4.8% of its membership figure.[/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]User-misclassified accounts amounted to 2.4% - including personal profiles for businesses or pets - while 1.5% of users were described as "undesirable".[/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]The estimate comes at a time of growing concern about the effectiveness of marketing on the platform.[/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]Facebook defined duplicates as "an account that a user maintains in addition to his or her principal account."[/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]It said profiles were "user-misclassified" if "users have created personal profiles for a business, organisation, or non-human entity such as a pet".[/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]It added that "undesirable" accounts included those using fake names which were "intended to be used for purposes that violate our terms of service, such as spamming".[/font][/color]

[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]Facebook, whose business model relies on targeted advertising, is coming under increased scrutiny over the worth of its advertising model which promotes the gathering of "likes" from users.[/font][/color]

[b] Analysis[/b]

Facebook to prove that the clicks they are receiving on their ads are "real" - these figures will provide them with added ammunition.[/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]"We generate a substantial majority of our revenue from advertising," the company said in its filing.[/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]"The loss of advertisers, or reduction in spending by advertisers with Facebook, could seriously harm our business."[/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]Last month, the BBC's technology correspondent Rory Cellan-Jones set up a fake company called VirtualBagel to investigate allegations of fake "likes".[/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]His investigation found that the large majority of "likes" for the fake firm originated from the Middle East and Asia.[/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]Many users appeared to be false, such as "Ahmed Ronaldo" - apparently a Cairo-based user who is employed by Spanish football club Real Madrid.[/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]Last week, digital distribution firm Limited Press alleged that, based on its own analytics software, 80% of clicks on its advertisements within Facebook had come from fake users.[/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]In a post on its Facebook page, the company said: "Bots were loading pages and driving up our advertising costs. So we tried contacting Facebook about this. Unfortunately, they wouldn't reply.[/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]"Do we know who the bots belong too [sic]? No. Are we accusing Facebook of using bots to drive up advertising revenue. No. Is it strange? Yes."[/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif]After a surge of attention to the company, it has since removed the Facebook posting, and [url="http://blog.limitedrun.com/post/28341629174/updated-weve-deleted-our-facebook-page"]said Facebook was now looking[/url] into its concerns.[/font][/color][/size]
