Suppose you used your facebook account at a public place ( like CYBER CAFE , FRIENDS LAPTOP etc. ) and you forget to log it out or sameone got your fb credentials using any keylogger software and used it for there fun by performing any kind of activity via your fb account and then you've noticed that activity suspicious on your Facebook
account--messages you never sent, Wall posts you never published, or
Notifications you never checked.
Luckily, Facebook recognizes this possibility and has implemented some
security tools to ease your worries and help you keep track of any
mischief on your account.( Whenever you, or anyone, logs into your Facebook account, a new entry is
added to your login history: it includes the web browser or device /
mobile app used, the estimated physical location, and the exact date and
time. Since this setting is enabled by default (it cannot be disabled),
and since it cannot be bypassed in any way,
it's a reliable method to noticing if someone unauthorized is accessing
your profile. You can check the last time someone logged into your
Facebook account at any time. Combined with the optional login
notifications and login approvals (more on that below), it makes it
impossible to hack into your account without your knowledge!)
To get started, head to Account Settings > Security. Then consider the following security options:Here is how to enable Login Notifications and Login Approvals:
- Click on the "triangle" drop-down menu in the upper right portion of the Facebook page.
- Select "Account Settings". A new page will open.
- On the upper left portion of the Facebook page you will see a tab called "Security" with a gold badge icon next to it. Click on it.
- A list of security settings are presented. Look for "Login Notifications" and click on it.
- Select the methods by which you will be notified when your account logs into Facebook (email and text message) and click the "Save Changes" button.
- Immediately below the "Login Notifications" section there is the "Login Approvals" section. Select it.
- Click on the checkbox to enable Login Approvals. A small window will
open which explains what Login Approvals are and how they work. Click
on the "Set Up Now" button to configure Login Approvals. A text message
will be sent to your registered cell phone. Enter the confirmation code
and click "Submit Code". Another small window will open with some
additional information. Click "Close"

Login Notifications and Approvals are now enabled.
To keep tabs on who is logging in, enable Login Notifications. Each time
someone logs in to your account at an unrecognized computer or mobile
device, Facebook will alert you via text message or e-mail. With that
information, you can end that session (see No. 2) and change your
password
2. End any suspicious activity
- Click on the "triangle" drop-down menu in the upper right portion of the Facebook page.
- Select "Account Settings". A new page will open.
- On the upper left portion of the Facebook page you will see a tab called "Security" with a gold badge icon next to it. Click on it.
- A list of security settings are presented. Look for"Where You're Logged In" and click on it
To see where exactly your account is logged in, head to "Active
Sessions." You'll see your current session listed at the top, and
log-ins on other computers below. If any of those log-ins look
suspicious (you can usually tell by the location), click "End Activity"
and change your password
Important: If you don't recognize portions of your login activity,
immediately go change your Facebook password.
If someone (a hacker, presumably) already did it, go through the
password-reset process as soon as you can, to regain access to your
account before it's too late!
