David Ross commented on a photo of you.Oh, how tempting it is to click the link. But, you see, that's what they want. Want to bet the link is bogus and tries to use a bug in my web browser to steal info or install a trojan? The first hint is when you check the link, it goes to some (neutered, here) bogus URL made to almost look like a real facebook link.

But it's bogus. This is known as SpearPhishing, and they're getting better. Watch what you click, and stop using IE -- that's about all I can suggest, despite having said it a million times before. For, while you will eventually accidentally click one of those bogus links, if you're not using IE you may stand a better chance of avoiding the virus on the other end.
