My previous Supervisor has experienced an electronic violence from her Facebook account. It has been hacked and has spread nasty rumors that she was cheating from her husband and how she has been unfaithful.
I was in shock because it was all over in her "wall" (where everyone can see updates of that person - could be status or where she's at., etc). I tried calling her to let her know but no answer from her phone.
I know she is a good person and she will never do that to her. Those nasty post from the hacker has caused her and her husband a very big misunderstanding.
I hope everyone did not experience this kind of maltreatment most especially that anyone can read whatever has been post. Also be advised to change your passwords from time to time to avoid your accounts, may it be Facebook or email adds, that it won't be hacked.
My friend's experience has served a warning to others and I am also posting it here for you guys.

There are unavoidable crap heads indeed saphy. They should be tied in a post and be burned in the town center. LOL. Just kidding. But I like to see them get punished. May it be from the law or from Karma itself.

Sorry to hear about what happened to your previous supervisor. It's really a nightmare to learn that your facebook account has been hacked. Hope those hackers will stop from doing such nasty job.

this is really sad. and it's a bad practice for those people and they should be punished. i guess, it's that husband that knows her better so he should not believe in the issue. best thing to do with facebook and other sites is to regularly change their password to avoid phishing and other scams.

I have been very lucky in that my facebook account has never been hacked. My daughter's, on the other hand, was hacked during the summer. It was lucky for us that it didn't end up getting locked because she is younger than thirteen years old, but they sent notification and from there we were able to change the password and there has not been any kind of a problem with her account since then.
I'm so sorry to hear about what your friend is going through.

The Internet can really be a powerful tool to use for good or evil, since the Internet's influence is vast, we can only pray that people would use it for more good than doing something like ruining people's lives. What the hacker did was not only unethical but it also goes against all morals. I think this is a personal vendetta that's gone out of hand and I hope the hacker will get caught and pay his just punishment for the things that he did.

That's the worst thing it can happen to anybody, especially a married couple. No matter how long they are married, and how deep they trust each other, with such a malicious attack coming through, the marriage is bound to be affected. NOt to mention her husband might be thinking, saying the account is hacked, is just an excuse. Oh my, i feel for your supervisor. These thing should never happen at all.

I keep hearing this type of malicious behavior more and more. The fact some people can't control their emotions and need to hurt others is truly sad.
I still don't have a Facebook account and keep questioning if I should. There are just so many jerks 'out there' and so many sophisticated hackers that whatever one shares is open to the public and worse, your info can be changed.
Good grief there is no way to get the word out to everyone that your account was hacked. Some read and just move on. It's too bad that with this awesome technology we have such huge challenges.
