Facebook getting hacked

by Quentin
6 replies
I just had a friend skype me and told me I was chatting to them on facebook and was in big trouble in London and send money via western union.

As I was not in facebook at the time I logged into my wifes account and sure enough it was true.

I went searching and this is happening a lot at the moment so beware.

Just a heads up

    Hey Quentin,

    Wow, thanks for the heads up.. This is the first I've heard about this. Time for a password change I think..

    Hey thanks for the heads up bro,

    Every time I hear the words "Western Union" or "Instant Money Transfers" ... I immediately assume there is something wrong.

    Again thanks for the heads up!

    I think everyone who uses facebook.com should change the password regularly, make it not a dictionary word and make sure it contain letters and numbers as well as checking their computer regularly for trojans.
