Thanks to modern developments, hackers are capable to hack thousands of accounts daily. If you were among the victims, you should not worry or worry: it is necessary to take several important actions at once.
Instruction
1. First of all you need to change the password. In certain cases hackers change it (for example then to sell the account of the victim), in some is not present (if just it is necessary to send spam). Anyway, they already had an access to your page so it is necessary to block it. Use the difficult password: length more than 8 characters, there are letters of different registers and at least one digit.
2. If you had no notifications by SMS (if those are available), then it is necessary to include them. It will significantly increase safety of your page. Even if it will manage to be cracked again, then you will be able to restore access with ease. Also on several resources the significant operations like change of the password can be performed only after confirmation by SMS.
3. Surely clean the history of visits and cookie. Perhaps, the hacker got access to yours to the account after you visited a phishing site. In this case you should delete all saved data. At different browsers a different algorithm of action, but most often it is necessary to come into the Setup point and to select the section "History" or "Cookies". It is better to clean these points for the entire period of work.
4. Further make check of a system by means of an antivirus. If you did not have it – install. It is optional to buy expensive software, now there is a set of free alternatives. Perhaps, you just downloaded a virus which imitates activity users or is capable to pull out passwords. It is better not to use "fast checks" as they can just not find the harmful file.
5. If at the website there is a function of sending messages, then surely check outgoing. Most often hackers use the hacked accounts just to do mailings. For example, they can write all to friends that you urgently needed to throw money for phone. Many trust and send blood. Of course, from one account this sum is very small, however several thousands of cracking are daily carried out, and process is automated.
6. However, hackers not always leave marks. Most often they prefer to erase messages that the user did not guess anything. In this case you need to write to friends and to ask whether you sent something strange. It is the best of all to place record on a wall or in the status of approximately following contents: "My account was hacked. If from my person any strange messages were sent, I ask to forgive".
