Just be careful. I have just had an attempt to hack into my Facebook account. I was chatting to the hacker via facebook messenger
What they did was send a request to reset the password on MY account.
They then sent me a message via facebook from my nephew's account which must have been hacked. He said something like " I'm desperate:, I've been locked out of my account, you should get a code so I can unlock my account, can you send it to me."
I go to my e-mail and see a message with a code, so they hope I would just send that code to them without reading the header. It would then allow them to change MY password and lock me out of MY account.
I have been asking my 'nephew' some simple questions he should be able to answer, of course the hacker doesn't know the answers.
