How Rude that the hackers of this world want to (and I suppose DO) get something for Nothing -
and then send all kinds of upheaval in ordinary lives!
I had my Facebook account set to friends only - I had the setting for httpS (normal FB its just http:etc - but to add the extra security set it to the https:etc!)
but still - I was hacked - while I was out getting ready for the weekend - my SIL in Texas called me - and I had dh go home for lunch to "fix it" (he is a computer software engineer - oh, and we have macbooks!) So he ran his security checks etc...
but either the hacker kept changing my fb account and my email that was attatched, or friends keep reporting my account as hacked - I'm giving up till Monday! (I'd be posting or trying to contact friends family saying I was hacked dont send money - and I'd get kicked back to resign up change my password!)
I went to the Facebook "help" and checked I'd been hacked and hacker is using my contacts - so again, back to that security screen -
My email that was attatched to FB - was a yahoo account - it was wiped clean! I now have no contacts, no pictures, and NO mail in my inbox (some I was saving too!) ALL GONE! (so when I check my fb account, many of my "friends" are gone too! for their protection I'm sure - I mean, I'm sure they had to delete me from this hacker getting into their accounts!)
only now it wont recognize my security question! and I dont recognize some of my facebook friends pictures!!
I have one friend I havent seen in 2 years, and she was all ready to send "me" $1400!! How sweet, and sad! (sad that people take advantage of kind hearted people!)
So if we are "friends" on FB - I'm broke, but not in London - and I wasnt held by gunpoint!!
