I've read this from mashable.com
It says that Facebook plans (still not sure) to make user use a face scanning software to scan face and confirm if the user is fake or not and guess the user's real age to be accurate on their advertisements.
Are fake Facebooks user's days are over? What can you say about this MyLotters?
If you want to try that face recognition software you can go face.com and see if they guessed your real age! :)

Hello IAmNena, oh! It is a new news for me. I haven't even heard about it. I think they are just trying their best to avoid the fake users and to make the site clean.
Definitely I will try it out. Thanks for the information .

It wouldn't be convenient for some users but I guess that's a good step forward. Security should always be a priority, it being one of the top if not the number one social networking media in the world. However, it would probably take a little longer to get this to execution stage.

How can they do this. Not everyone has a webcam to see who is logging in. If you steal someone's password, you could still login to their account and pretend to be them. Or you could use someone else's personal information and upload a fake photo to create an account in their name. Can Facebook even check personal data, such as a person's birthday? I don't think so.
