REUTERS: Facebook on Thursday sued a Hong Kong company that it said baited people into clicking on celebrities' photos and bogus advertising links, so it could install malware and run ads for counterfeit goods, diet pills and male enhancement supplements.

None of the defendants could immediately be reached for comment. The complaint filed in the federal court in San Francisco seeks unspecified damages and a Facebook ban. The Menlo Park, California-based company said it has also issued more than US$4 million in refunds to customers whose accounts were used by ILikeAd to run unauthorized ads."Cloaking" involves disguising the content of a link by displaying one version of that content to Facebook and another version to users.
