Such applications must be considered a scam whose goal is to steal your Facebook private information or to spread malware or viruses! You have to got to delete them right away. So let’s see how to get rid of Profile Peekers and other “who views/stalks my Facebook profile” from your FB account!

Help! I still can’t get rid of the Profile Peeker app. It shows up as my profile status, but it’s not listed in my apps.

I found this profile peeker in my list of apps that can send emails to me but it is not in the list of apps and games, so there is no way to remove it as outlined in this article. The place its showing up is under Facebook stuff only, Makes me wonder if it isn’t something facebook put in place because there is absolutely no way to remove this from my account.
