Few days back, I also become victim of
one such scam on facebook where I liked and commented below an image to see
what happens next. I waited for some times to see that if anything will happen
or not. As it was a scam message so nothing happened at all.
Many such messages are very common
online where we see compelling pictures and we are forced to think what will
happen next.
It is written above this picture that when
you will comment and like this image then you will see a miracle.
One of such example is here
However, nothing happens because first
it is a scam message and second there is no such technique which can show new
picture when you like or comment.
However, many innocent users become
victim of such facebook image scams like me.
Here are examples of some other
pictures used for Facebook image scam.

| Example 2 Facebook Image Scam |

| Example 3 Facebook Image |
The main secret behind these pictures is
quick method to become popular on facebook and make money. Facebook gives more
importance to pages and stories which have higher numbers of likes and comments
on them. These pages are given higher rank on facebook and shown first on
search result.
Therefore, by utilizing curiosity of
common facebook users, these image scammers generate millions of likes and comments
for their facebook pages and make them successful and high ranking in short
time.
Later, scammers sell these pages for
good prices to different people or originations who do not want to start from
zero.
Therefore, next time you see such compelling
images on facebook which tells you to comment or like then please ignore them
or report them.
