i dont use facebook much not like before. i use the messenger for the desktop to talk 1 friend other than that i could care less about facebook and here is a reason as to why.... a friend of mine a while back had a lot of randon posts looking for pills. now i know this friend and she was not on any pills that i new of atleast. well i mentioned it to her and she changed her password and everything. then a few weeks later she had messages going out about pills and a kinds of other things. i was one who recieved this. so once again i mentioned it and i showed it to her. well last night she comes to me and says that someone has gotten a hold of her personal messages to a friend...how is this possible she asked me?? her password she thought was a very hard one and she tells no one it. well these messages were not bad but almost broke up a good friendship and a marraige. like i said they were not bad i saw them myself but someone had added in extra words and extra things to make it look worse than it was. she has had 3 facebook accounts and still this keeps happeneing. anyone have any ideas on what she can do to stop this? has your facebook account been hacked?

Has your friend combined letters and numbers for her password? And don't use birth date or anniversaries, or phone number because it's easy to guess. If she keeps using dates for her password then it might keep happening. My Facebook account used to be hacked when I was still get online from the internet cafe. I then changed the password and combined it with numbers. And since now I can get online from my house, it hasn't happened any more.

I told her about it and her password wasn't arranged right. She said she's changing it to make it way harder for others. Thank you

I'm not sure about if that is how she has her password or not since of course she doesn't go around telling people her password but I will definitely make sure to mention that to her. I'm hoping with all the ideas I have gotten we can put them all together and use them all and May be it will solve the problem lol. Good to hear it fixed your issue of being hacked. Hopefully my friend can get hers fixed to

I think that she should delete all her face book accounts that she has and also put a status up saying that she is not going to be on face book any more, leave it a few days or a week then start a new one up, that way some people will think she has gone for good and the problem may never start up again when she starts a new account on face book. I feel that there are lots of people out there that only go on face book to see what other people are doing or to start trouble.

Thank you. That is a good idea and I didn't think of that. I will give her the suggestion. I agree with you many people go out looking for trouble. They look for someone they can cause problems with. And I think your idea might work because people always look through the posts that people make. Maybe it will stop it or they will move on to someone else. I don't like that idea of someone else being messed with but she doesn't need all the extra drama in her life. I hope this will solve the problem....

the thing is this friend has maybe 40 friends on her facebook and each of them she either knows or talks to and most of them are family. not to mention she doesnt even use it all that much. she doesnt post anything random like most people do and her profile is basically empty of information so no one can get a hold of that information. that is why we are having such a hard time figuring out how and who and why they would do this to her.
