The wife's account has been hijacked by a spam website. They keep updating her status updates via mobile.

Had a quick peruse around and can't seem to find anywhere to notify them of said hijack. Should the account be deactivated, deleted or just change the log in details?

I have deleted the very small amount of personal details on there, for what it may be worth.

Just change the password if you can. You can delete the account but all that will do is leave it waiting for you to log on, so whoever has the details will be able re-activate it!

Change password, remove all mobile numbers from her account and remove any recently added applications.

Peace out

It'll be an app.

Just delete all the applications on her profile and change the password just incase and it'll be sorted.

I noticed it happened to someone facebook also. They said it was from clicking to view comments under a status. Shocked I dont allow things to access my profile and only run two apps that seem safe enough.

I only run Mafia Wars and Farmville. Heard too much bad things about the apps on Facebook.

You can delete them from the Application Settings menu in Settings.

Can you grow cannabis in Farmville and then sell it in Mafia Wars?

you know someone should make an app like that. Growing your own weed and you can unlock different types as you go along and sell it at the market. And it would be legal. you could even buy equipment with your monies of selling. Thinking

you could have bonus like your mates had to donate their weed to you as the cops where on to them instead of winning crappy farmtown lotto every day.

if only I could make apps like that.

Old Thread Alert!

The last post was made 16 years, 334 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful?
