Unusual Login Activity

5 replies
I am getting this message when I try logging into my facebook account.

It tells me that someone was trying to login in new mexico then it asks me for a new password, not my current password at all but a new one.

but first reaction is not to fill it out the link in the url form is hxxps://wxw.facebook.com/roadblock/index.php

I have added the xx my self so it wont live link.

Is this standard procedure or is it a hacking attempt. And how can I get into my account.

    If I use this: facebook.com/roadblock/index.php

    It happily redirects to my profile.

    I was never on Facebook before but definitely sounds fishy.

    I'm guessing if there is a problem there would be some kind of message to you from the Facebook administration once you were logged in.

    May even be a some kind of virus or something on your own computer.

    I'd be very cautious.

      My guess is that someone is trying to hack your stuff. Chances are they will also go after any email accounts that you have listed in your FB profile also if that isn't their intended target to begin with.

    It's not a Facebook plugin that you recently added to your Wordpress or something is it?

    A similar message appears when you log in if you have authorised a WP plugin to gain access to your account. - For auto Facebook posts, etc.

    Cheers,

    the problem with facebook is whenever you just simply go out of your city... for the weekend, and login from another city, it always roadblocks you, and you have to waste 10 minutes to recognize photos of friends... it is ekstremely annoying...

    anyone knows how to disable this "roadblock"?
