Facebook Friends for comps

Hi,
I am fairly new to the comp forum. I have M.E./CFS and dont get up to much these days but I do enjoy the comps, wining something one day will be a bonus!
Anyway, my question is about Facebook. I have an account which has my friends and family on and I was concerned about some of the FB comps that want access to mine and their details. I have therefore started a new account just for comps. Is this something that you all do? And if so, do you add each other as friends in order to share comps and also make friends?

    Hi, Facebook does not allow you to have multiple accounts so you may find your new account gets shuts down, especially if you don't have any 'genuine' friends on there.

    I just use my usual facebook account for comping and avoid any companies that look spammy.
