The first thing you need to do if you suspect your Facebook account has been compromised is to change your password. Then, if you are using Facebook to log into apps such as Spotify or Instagram then change those logins as well. This will prevent the hacker from accessing those third-party services from your hacked Facebook profile.
Hackers can access an abundance of personal information in hacked Facebook accounts. Hackers could use this information for malicious motives, such as taking credit card numbers or sending people fake credit card offers or scams using phishing. They can also use the compromised account to send spam messages to friends, or even share a status update on your timeline that includes your name (as as if you had done it yourself).
One of the most popular methods hackers gain access to an account is when they exploit a flaw in Facebook’s app code. A bug in the iOS Facebook application allows hackers to steal cookies and steal the “access token” of an iPhone user. These tokens are digital keys, give them complete control over the user’s Facebook Account, and any other website they access using their Facebook credentials.
Hackers can also gain access to a user’s account by using brute force attacks. This method involves figuring out passwords, generally the most popular ones such as 123456789 and 1234567890. Additionally, hackers can gain access to an account by scanning for compromised credentials. There are many free tools that can be used to search for stolen information, including the popular site HaveIBeenPwned.
