Facebook Hack – Social Media

“On Friday, September 28, 2018 Facebook said that an attack on its computer network had exposed the personal information of nearly 50 million users.The attackers exploited the “View As” feature that allows users to see their Facebook page the way someone else would. This could allow the attackers to take over Facebook accounts. Facebook has fixed this issue and informed law enforcement. They also do not know if the affected accounts were misused or if user information was actually accessed.  Make sure you are getting everything your ID Theft membership has to offer.”

How to Protect Yourself

Follow these steps to prevent tax identity theft:

Do

File your income taxes early in the season, before a thief can file taxes in your name.  Also, Keep an eye out for any IRS letter or notice that states:

• More than one tax return was filed using your Social Security number.
• You owe additional tax, you have had a tax refund offset, or you have had collection actions taken against you for a year you did not file a tax return.
• IRS records indicate you received wages from an employer unknown to you.

Don’t

• Don’t reply to or click on any links in suspicious email, texts, and social media messages. Make sure to report anything suspicious to the IRS.

Also – I might suggest switching to Duck Duck Go for Search.
