🔰Part 1: Facebook:🔰
As of the time of writing this article, Facebook has approximately 2.23 Billion users worldwide and that means that even if you are not on Facebook, many of your friends might be. So you don’t have a Facebook account you say so you’re not at risk? Well, that’s not exactly true because of a trend called cybersquatting…That means that someone can claim your Facebook name and effectively pose as you simply by creating an account in your name even if you don’t have a Facebook account. Or maybe you don’t check Facebook that often. It’s also plausible that someone might make a Facebook account that is similar to yours and people in your network or friends of your friends might send you a friend request thinking that it’s you. Additionally, you absolutely should go into your Facebook account and view your profile as someone else sees it to make sure you’re not sharing information with people you don’t want to. If you’ve seen the news recently, hackers were able to exploit a vulnerability in the supposedly secure tokens that allow you to view your profile as one of your friends.
