Why is Facebook adding fake likes to ads?

Ever since Facebook added ads to the iOS app, and I saw that people "Liked" the ad / company. I had a sneaking suspicion it wasn't true.

So I just asked one of my friends if they had liked "Cox Communications", and sure enough they hadn't.

So why does Facebook think its OK to lie to their consumer base?

How can we get this stopped?
