Thousands of Facebook backlinks. How is it possible?

    I was watchng the backlinks of xtoys.gr on Yahoo site explorer.
    (This site is number one on Google.gr for the keyword sex shop.)

    I opened some sites and found out that they had one thing in comon, a Facebook widget. But looking on these sites there was not a backlink to xtoys.gr.

    So, I decided to look the code of the page. And there it was. A hidden backlink to xtoys.

    At all the sites I found this:

    <div class=""><iframe scrolling="no" frameborder="0" src="http://www.facebook.com/connect/connect.php?id=150561337922&connections=8&stream=0&css=&locale=en_GB"allowtransparency="true" style="border: none; width: 261px; height: 248px;"></iframe><style type="text/css">.tiflo { display:none; }</style><div class="tiflo"><a href="http://www.xtoys.gr/">sex shop</a></div><div class="tiflo"><a

    So, my question is how is this possible?

    No, the backlinks are not from Facebook. They are hidden in the code of the websites.

    get the code for the facebook widget from facebook and confirm the xtoys link is NOT part of the widget code by mistake or on purpose....
