We recently encountered a mobile phishing page that looks very similar to the official Facebook mobile page. However, looking closely into the URL address, there are noticeable differences. The real Facebook page is located at https://m.facebook.com/login and has the lock icon to show that the page is secured.

Once users are done, they are led to another page, this time asking for their credit card details.

The only time I am required to Log in to Facebook's mobile site, is when I want to modify advanced settings that the Facebook apps doesn't allow.

You could probably change the browsers' User Agent to trick Facebook into thinking you're using a desktop browser. However, I'm unsure if these settings can be changed on mobile devices. Or you may be able to use a Proxy, I know CyberGhost's Web Proxy you can change the User Agent.
