I let them do it as well because my friends know that I don't talk like that. I'm eager to see if they'll see it and what they will say. I don't care if they got to my FB, it is worth the $3.
My concern isn't really whether or not they have your FB info (since you could use a fake FB account or whatever) but that that then gives them access to your friends' FB accounts. You consented to participate, but your friends didn't. That's exactly what happened in the Ted Cruz MTurk/FB thing.

Not if you put it on "Only Me", and my privacy settings are pretty high...not concerned.

from the article
"Crucially, Kogan also captured the same data for each person’s unwitting friends. For every individual recruited on MTurk, he harvested information about their friends, meaning the dataset ballooned significantly in size... Users agreed for the survey to access their Facebook account and download data including: name, age, location and Likes. The same information was captured for each of the seeders’ friends. Facebook data used to generate detailed models of individuals’ personalities."

scary stuff, Cruz..
