It's a non official YoWorld forum, it is not affiliated with BVG.

I cannot understand why they would try to log into your facebook account unless they were up to no good.

I knew when they posted that forum, that it was going to be an issue. I even contacted BVG about it.

We (all of us) just need to remember... if you don't see it on here or on BVG's page... steer clear!

Glad you were able to avoid any problems Maylee. Wow! Scary!

The word 'fake' isn't necessary. It's a fan made forum.

Actually the word fake describes the other forum very well. It is not a forum for a community to talk about yoworld topics. It is used to make you believe that you are at BVGs yoworld forum and then if you use your email and password from facebook to create a login to the forum they try and sign on to your facebook account. After this happened to me, I noticed the group saying that you could link your avi by asking for you to enter your facebook info into the page. (Of course this threw up a red flag to me but this was posted after my account locked up.) I also noticed that after I changed my password and reported the computer that tried to login using my information, they deleted me as a member. If Greg or Gary want the website address, I am sure I could find it for them.
