Probably fake. But all you need to do is right click an image and choose "save as" or similar and no such notification would be triggered. If there's a download button then you are sending a request to their server letting them know you are downloading. Don't do that.

Facebook would have to be very dumb to implement such a thing:
They thrive because of all the people stalking other people. It drives page views and minutes spent online.
Fake.

I had no idea the download button even existed.

Facebook is the stalker of all stalkers.
Beyond All Seas
"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe.
To be your own man is a hard business. If you try it, you'll be lonely often, and sometimes
frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself." - Kipling

I hope this is fake. Otherwise I'm going to be really embarrassed.
