Now you can find out if your Facebook account has been hacked and fix it.
Facebook accounts are not only the most sought-after prey for hackers, but they are also a target for spying by jealous spouses or exes, as well as competitors at work. To ensure that our Facebook accounts are protected, we must choose strong characters for our passwords that are difficult to decipher. Similarly, even when you install anti-malware software for your system, it cannot guarantee that the system is completely safe from attacks. And if that is not enough, many of us use our Facebook accounts to log in to other websites. Therefore, it becomes very important to ensure that our Facebook account is secure.
To find out if your Facebook has been hacked, go to “Settings,” then “Security,” then “Where You’re Logged In.” If you notice any unfamiliar login locations, then your account may have been compromised.
Don't worry though, as Facebook gives you the option to "end activity" for that particular login location. To be even more secure, you can click "End all activity" for the account.
Additionally, other possible signs include changes to personal data or log-in information, or sending requests to unknown people. Similarly, you should also check your outgoing messages that you haven't written or check for mysterious messages that have been sent to you.
The first and most important thing to do is change your password and set up two-factor authentication. Then, Facebook has a system to help you in case you've been hacked.
Visit Facebook's help page, click on "I think my account has been hacked or someone is using it without my permission," and then click "secure it." Facebook will take you to a page where you can log in and then follow the steps to secure your account.
