    OK. So I have been searching the web for almost a week now off and on.

    Here is what happened.

    I have the facebook app for blackberry (i have the tour).

    I received a friend invite and accepted via my blackberry.

    I went into their profile and WHAM - i see a whole ton of very inappropriate groups that the person had joined - like a list of twenty.

    I immediately posted a message to their wall asking if their account had been hacked.

    THEN....

    I checked facebook via my normal IE browser. Nothing there about these groups. It wasn't on their wall. it wasn't in their profile. I was staring at my blackberry and it showed the entries in their profile at the same time i was looking on my PC.

    Soooooooo,...... they then replied - 'no, my account doesn't seem to be hacked, why would you ask that?'. oooops.

    So folks - is this a known issue?

    Yes, the browser is going to showing you a different layout, and accessibility on your BB than it will on a computer.

    Yeah, but surely i shouldn't be able to see things via my blackberry that a friend has deliberately hidden from their profile....
