Hacked

My account was Hacked!

Is an everyday outcry seen in everybody’s timeline; people continually claim their account was hacked and somebody is sending weird stuff to their friends, cloning the account itself etc; no matter if all they do is post cat’s videos or gossip. The reality is there is now a market for those accounts, beyond the casual immediate benefit of somehow cashing in from direct information, the accounts become platforms to attack more important targets. Nevertheless is stressful and really annoying for all kind of people.

I recommend this article from Cosmopolitan, which apart from telling an interesting story, will provide you with exact instructions to better secure your social media presence and make it a lot more difficult for the bad guys to make you look like one of them.
