How to get rid of hackers on Facebook? - Mystery Girl - 04-15-2013 12:14 PM

So one day I signed in to facebook and I see that I've posted stuff on my other friends' walls saying stuff like, "hey check this video out it's so funny," and it includes a link that's like spam or something. But the thing is, I didn't post that and it must be like a hacker or something? How do I get this to stop?

Yes, your account was hacked and phished. You probably entered your login info on a fake Facebook login page or downloaded some malicious software to your computer. So now, you need to act quick before something bad happens.

1. Scan your computer and check for viruses. Then remove them if you find any.

2. Make a new password by going to Account > Account Settings.

3. In the future, don't click suspicious links. Double check the website before you type in your information.

Good luck~
