My chat friend told me, I must be careful when open / logging in FaceBook. Because , Now our account can be steal. and our ID will be wrong used, I don't how to do it. My friend just tell me, if the ways like Phishing in Friendster. You know, several time a go in my place so crowded because Friendster hacking incident. The thief can hack our private data in friendster account and able to see private photo. Are you ever get phishing like this, and what your reactions ? If you have experienced, please share in here, Thanks !

I think that does not only apply to facebook but any other sites too.. hehe ^_^ What's important is one must be careful in opening any sites, especially those which requires our username and password.. THus, instead of opening them from our address bar, it will be good to type in a new URL instead.. hehe So far, nothing of the sort had happened to me yet, and thus i wont know.. BUT most likely i will be upset and disappointed.. Luckily for me, i dun have any account in any social networking site, and thus i'm free.. haha =D

But Phishing isn't for only social networking, Paypal and many earning site very risk for phishing. And I will try to opening a site only from address bar. But, if I opened from my bookmark, its not risk huh ?

IT will still be a risk, for it's being stored in there.. So it will be very much safer to be typing a brand new URL, whenever u need to vist that particular site ^_^

hi srikandi19.. I have got it also, but on Paypal. But before login I have discovered that its Web design seems different than the real ones, so I was not login on there, I started to clear my cookies and everything, and started it from beginning. And now just done.

Yup, we must be careful. If your ID and password be stolen by thief, you will lose your money.
