You're account has been most likely been phished (stolen). There are a number of ways this could have happened, but if you are still able to sign in, then you should be able to change your password. Please do so immediately, and run anti-virus software to make sure there are no outside programs stealing your passwords, such as a keylogger. Contact me if you need anymore help.

You have been what is commonly called "Phished". This basically means that some way or another (normally a keylogger) was able to get your information for FB.
Run a full virus sweep on your computer with an anti-virus program (like AVG{It is FREE and good}) and then change your password on FB. If the problem persists the virus may be a little harder to remove. If so, consult a store or friend who knows a bit about computers. Good luck. |

You might have a key logger. Run a deep virus scan with this scanner: http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebytes-An...04572.html
Download it. If the problem still there, change your password or if that doesn't work go deactivate the account. |
