A 14-year-old girl from Hertfordshire who included her address on a Facebook invitation to her party was alarmed when 21,000 said they would be coming.
The party was cancelled when the school pupil was swamped by RSVPs from unwanted would-be guests on the social networking site.
The girl, from Harpenden, had reportedly only intended to invite 15 friends to her 15th birthday party.
Police said officers would patrol the area on the day of the planned party.
Harpenden neighbourhood officer Sgt Lewis Ducket, of Hertfordshire Police, said: "We are aware of this and have been assured that the event is no longer taking place.
