I just received a chat message from someone I know on Facebook.

The chat said I had been reported as a bad guy & needed to reconfirm my information.

I immediately thought “what in the world had someone taken offense to?”

AND off I went to “fix it”

Luckily as I was half way through my reconfirming my information I stopped and
really took a look at the site I was about to provide my information to.

Thank goodness I did! Because it’s new Facebook Scam!!

Here is a screen shot of my FaceBook profile

Notice on the bottom right I have received a warning message from my friend Barbara.

This warning is false and the person who had hijacked the account is attempting to get my personal login information.

The URL they want me to go to is not associated with Facebook, this was the BIG CLUE that made me realize this warning was fake.

THE URL was help-confirmation-accounts.de.vc/

If this happens to you, IMMEDIATELY  change your password and report it to Facebook.

I suggest you use something like StrongPasswordGenerator and create a super strong password.

I posted information a while back about managing your passwords, you may want to check it out…
“OMG, How Do I Keep Track Of All These Passwords?”

Please pass this along to friends you believe may be at risk.

Any questions or comments are welcome here on the blog.

Has anything like this ever happened to you?
