Hacked

I think both my Blogger and Facebook accounts were hacked into recently. I'm wondering how these little cyber monstrosities get inside places they're not suppose to when I'm pretty tenacious about protecting my passwords, accounts, and about the places I visit online.

Could you PLEASE notify me if you've gotten any spam emails from me on Blogger or on Facebook? I'd feel so embarrassed if one of my Blogger or Facebook friends received from me any spam or emails or messages or Lord knows what else happens when your system is hacked into.

If this is the case, I sincerely apologize to any of you, my Blogger friends, ahead of time.

You know...nothing irritates me more! That happened to Tod, too! Facebook account AND one of his email accounts...so violating. It bothered me more than him! :)

I got all of your emails and turned them over to the FBI. Just kidding. I'm glad I quit Facebook.

Tom, that happened to me with my email account. Someone sent me a Viagra add, so I clicked on the "unsubscribe" link. Presto! They now had all my email contacts and started sending out Viagra adds in my name. (I know, because I got one from myself)

In regards to Facebook, when you get those posts from people to "Click on this, you won't believe it!" NEVER, EVER click on it! It is spam set up to get all your contacts so they can send out crap in your name.

Also, I went in and deleted all my "Likes" as once you "Like" something, they now have the same access to your profile and page as your friends.
