Not Getting Notifications On Facebook
I was doing my typical early morning regimen last Sunday (June 19) when I discovered something strange concerning my Facebook account: I'm obtaining notifications from people I do not understand. Extra specifically, I'm getting 'likes' and also comments from status updates and also web links that I didn't publish, as well as updates from groups I did not join.

4. Afterwards make sure to inspect 'Secure Browsing' (so you'll be on HTTPS, far more protected) and also 'Login Notifications' (so you'll be informed if somebody else is logging on your account.) [Just claimed, checking these alternatives will make accessing your Facebook account extra secure.]

[Updated June 29, 2011] I recognize there are still secrets to be addressed but the culprit below actually is, well, my negligence: I should have checked those security settings prior to. With all the existing goings-on about hacking and such, I must have double-checked my accounts so that I could the very least shield them from breach. I truly do not recognize without a doubt it this was connected with that said, however at the very least I can rest easy that I have actually done something about it.
