Hacking

My Yahoo e-mail and facebook pages were hacked into last week.  I was able to fix the e-mail but facebook is not fixed.  I have sent several requests but have yet to hear back from facebook.  It is very upsetting that this persoon has access to my page and some personal information.  This person pretends to be me and asks my family and friends for money to be sent to England on my behalf.  I am locked out of facebook because this person changed my log in information and my password.  Can  some one help straighten this out?

These days there are many ways a facebook account can be hacked easily and many people are falling victims to these hackers. Its very easy to get trapped by hackers, they use more sophisticated  methods to do it. And are you in such a situation? Did some one hacked your facebook account ?

There should be any thing to worry if it is yes. Before losing hope there are some things that can be done to get your Hacked Face Book Account Back.


First of all you can try resetting your account password on facebook. But this could help only in rare cases, because most hackers are intelligent and they surely will have changed the default email address. But if some body have accidentally (though the chances are extremely narrow) logged into your account and has changed only the password of your face book account, this might help you in recovering your account password and gain access to your compromised account.

But things get much more worse when the hacker changes the email address in your Face Book Account. You’ll no longer be able to reset the account password and gain access to the account.

But there is a way.

Face Book provides a contact page for you to help you to in recovering the hacked account .
