It is strictly illegal for UK prisoners to set up Facebook accounts.
The ruthless gangster was jailed in 2004 for 13 years for gun crimes on top of a three-and-half-year jail sentence for smashing a bottle over a reveller's head in a nightclub.
A friend of his was handed a life sentence for shooting the victim dead at Oldham's Caribbean nightclub.
Weapons belonging to Curtis were found to have been used in a shooting in Old Trafford, Manchester.
Salute:
In the past Curtis has used illegal mobiles to run a drugs empire from his prison cell.
Over a six month period he used a mobile 45,000 times - making or receiving more than 246 calls or texts a day.
Police uncovered the scale of the calls to and from his phone using cell-site analysis, which showed when and roughly where the calls were made or received.
It proved he was using his mobile virtually non-stop in his cell at Rye Hill prison, Coventry, and then at his cell in Whitemoor prison, Cambridgeshire.
A spokesman for the prison service say they were speaking to Facebook with a view to having his account taken down.
