Almost all the times when "naked pictures" are circulated on Facebook, these are attempts to redirect a suspicious site that will infect your Facebook account, or attempt to make money from advertisements. Facebook has added to official news sites "Blue Way", indicating that the page has been verified and is a real news body. Move the mouse cursor over the page and check if it has a blue vi, if so, this is an official page that will probably not distribute links that endanger the computer. Never submit your Facebook information outside of the official site or app.
