I keep getting notices from Facebook about phishing! HELP!?

[Tyler]

Facebook interrupts me, tells me to log in, requires me to identify myself, and tells me to change my password. This has been happening quite often today, how do I stop it?

Sometimes spammers create fake pages that look like the Facebook login page. When you enter your email and password on one of these pages, the spammer records your information and keeps it. This is called phishing.

When someone has been phished, their account will often start automatically sending messages or links to a large number of their friends. These messages or links are often advertisements telling friends to check out videos or products
.
â– If your account is automatically sending out spammy messages or links, secure it here.

â– If you think your friend's account was phished, tell them to change their password and run anit-virus software on their computer.
