How You’ll Know Your Facebook Has Been Hacked

By Mitchell Pierce Pro Author Mitchell Pierce

You may imagine my surprise when I tried to access my facebook hacks account two days ago and was prompted with a screen saying that my account had been locked-out because there were too many unauthorized attempts to access my account. My Face book account had been hacked. So what can you do when faced with this same catastrophe? Fortunately, Fb has a lot of security measures in place that will help you restore your account and return to sending messages to your own friends again right away.

All is not lost in the event you log in to your account and get the exact same display I got. I was more concerned about other accounts I have that use the same user name and same password. The primary display essentially states that facebook hacked has to verify that you are the correct user for the account. So you need to click a button to proceed to the next display. The next screen you will see will reveal you the web address and also the positioning of where somebody was looking to get your account. In my own case, I had been revealed a little personal identification number on a Google map in Auckland, New Zealand. Face Book inquired if this might have been me attempting to login to my account from this location. Well, because I have never been to Nz it couldn’t possibly have been me. So, I clicked the button that said something along the lines of this is perhaps not me.

Next, I was given the option of how I’d like to identify myself as the right holder of the account. I could either choose a choice of sending a verification email to the email account on file then return to put in the activation code, or identify some photos of my buddies. The primary alternative was virtually never even a choice. If my account were hacked, how can I know when the individual had already reset the e-mail account as well as the activation code would go to the knuckle head in New Zealand? I picked to attempt alternative two and identify photos of my buddies. It must be noted you will be shown your friends images from their reports and not photographs of them in your report. If you don’t think that you can recognize your friends from a photograph line up then you should select the first alternative of the activation-code.

I was guided via a sequence of nine distinct friends and I was able to identify each of them. Facebook granted me entry to my account and that I was immediately prompted to modify my password. After changing my code word, I had been given instructions by Facebook to change the password on some other accounts that I might have that use the exact same username and password. That was the entire process. So be mindful and I’d suggest changing your password once a month to be secure.
