Privacy and Facebook seem to be eternal enemies bonded by blood!  In a development yesterday, Android users messages sent to private beneficiaries were seen in Public.  Facebook messages sent by Android users through Facebook Page Manager were seen in Public.  It seems that the App has some kind of flaw causing private messages sent by Page owners using Facebook’s Pages Manager for Android to become public on the very page. 

The Android Police first noticed this flaw and brought it to the notice of Facebook.  At 11.30 pm PT Facebook's Rory informed Android Police that the company is looking into the issue and "will try to get a fix up soon."  

Till the issue is fixed you shouldn't use the Android Facebook Pages Manager to send or receive posts and images.  They may land up in unwanted hands.  Will keep you updated of the Facebook's fix for this very serious flaw.
