From what I understand it goes something like this:
1. Create false profile.
2. For 3-6 months, bot posts various crap and makes friend requests.
3. Start pushing product.
4. Account eventually flagged and removed from facebook.
5. Rinse and repeat.

*Everything is done behind proxies. You have to have hundreds of profiles and constantly adding more because they will be banned eventually.
