Thats fukbook for you, their are plenty of ways to get hacked on it,a good one is hackers hiding crap in links so its a good idea to copy and paste the link in ya browser not click on them also phishing is another one they often use.
hmmmm .... Got home yesterday and found my Facebook account had been suspended for suspicious activities and then found out that some on had hacked into my account and sent spam to everone in my friends list .... I don't know how this happened cause I always login in through my favorites list .... but I have two account passwords in Norton 360's idenitity safe one Facebook and the other Austech .... So I wonder if that was how ... so far no spamming on my account on Austech .... lets see what happens ....
.... CAUTION SPAM AHEAD ....

It could be from the applications you use in FB. Some are dodgy.
facebook itself is bad enough but facebook and nortons.......not a good mix
do yourself a favour uninstal nortons and instal something decent and delete your facebook account you dont need it anyway....christ has everyone forgotton how to email or call?

The Early Bird May Get The Worm But Its The Second Mouse That Gets The Cheese!
FB being hacked.... all depends what you mean by hacked.
So many drunk friends of mine, use my lappy to get on FB, then leave... when i open my lappy, they have pages open, all logged in... I could do anything on their behalf at that stage.
Not saying this is what happened to you... but plenty of people log into FB from all kinds of platforms and locations...
The only thing good about FB, is it gives the Police, Sheriff, ATO, and anyone interested a nice running log of your life.

same happened to me, got disabled, they wouldnt budge with anything
had to start it all over again
Yeah ocaenboy no chance of friends logging in with my pass I only use my computers to log in .... and it was spam/phishing sacams like ..... WIN A PS3 SLIM .... WANT TO WIN A FREE SHOPPING SPREE .... ETC .... intelliGEORGE cheers but I don't use any of the facebook applications at all .... I'll have to open a thread to rate veiwers top 5 anti-virus picks cause I had the impression that norton was good allround security but im not very well informed .... the identity safe is the only thing I can think of so I might put the new password in there and see if it happens again ....
Lead me not into temptation...I am capable of getting there myself.
if your email account is Gmail that is the worst to have linked with FB
for me, i think i was using an android app to login to facebook.. ebuddy or something and read that their servers got hacked??
great responses there and i agree with all. most importantly get rid of norton anti virus or any other paid A/V put simply they make majority of nasties so you need their product to remove ie: makes them money.... Choose a free A/V avast is my personal choice.
Next facebook is far from safe and if your account was hacked for spam it would mean that you email prob was the source of entry. i suggest you change all passwords regularly. face book is far from safe and identity theft is on increase.
This happend to me too, i can tell you how it happend, i clicked a link to close the account down. But instead it gives them ur password the damn FB site is still there too up , wonder how many people have clicked it. Next day i get a call in supermarket from friend saying you got ALLAH AKBAH all over it, and on my friends walls all this bs.....
Why anyone would want to post on facebook in the first place is beyond me.
Hope it wasn't anything embarrassing like this:
