I think my Facebook account is hacked, please help? - Dovakhiin - 08-25-2013 04:25 PM
Hi, I think my Facebook account has been hacked.
i say this because, it was my friend's Birthday and it said that I had wished him 8 hours ago. The thing is I was sleeping at that time, no one at my home has used Facebook for the day, I do not keep my Facebook account signed in I always make sure it's logged out.
I have changed my password now, but I am afraid about using it what should I do to make sure no one else is hacking my FB account. I have HTTPS on as well.
what am i supposed to do?? Please help me.

Ok you can assign a different email account to your facebook. The person who has been hacking into your facebook might know the password to your email. So you should make a new email. Also, write a password that similar to this one. "f5f3hwk570snvR201" Make sure it has a mixture of lowercase and higher case letters, and numbers. Juggle them around. Make sure to write you new email account username and password on a paper and hide it somewhere in your room. Do the same for your facebook account.

You can change the security settings in fb as well. It saves a device name that you have given n every time you or someone else log in from another device It will send a mail to your email account .

If someone had used your account, you think they'd really use it to wish Happy Birthday,
Just change your password and check for any rats/spyware on your PC, also stop clicking links like:
Free Beats Headphones
Facebook Dislike Button
Cartoonize yourself
If something seems too good to be true, IT IS.
Common sense plays a massive role in staying safe online.
Peace
