Facebook doesn't send out links like that. The link you click is probably a link to a malware infection. I would suggest deleting that email, and scan your computer with an anti malware / anti virus program very VERY soon. You can find anti malware software and the link attached. Free Anti Malware Internet Security Software

Install the free version, update it, and do a full scan on your computer ASAP.

I have someone logging into my Facebook account almost everyday and maybe three times or more. What can I do so I don’t have to be changing my password all the time?

Hello, Kathy -

1. Establish a new, separate email address. Use an email provider which is different than the one you currently use . . . Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo,Mail.com, etc. Make sure you use a strong password for that new email account and write it down somewhere and keep it in a safe place, in case you forget the password..

2. Open your Facebook account (your current email address + the latest Facebook password you established) and choose Settings.

Edit your Facebook Account Contact email address to the new one you just established and make it your Primary Email Address. Plus remove the email address you previously used as your Primary Email Address.

If you have a cell phone, make sure your cell phone number is provided as an alternate contact.

Save those changes.

3. Then, change your Facebook Password. You should see Security and Login in the left sidebar. Click or tap on that. Follow the on-screen instructions for changing your Password. Make your new Facebook password a strong one. Write it down, along with your new FB login / ID and keep it in a safe location so that you can refer to it if you forget it. Save that change.

4. Log out of your FB account.

5. Log back into your FB account, with the new ID/email address and new Password. NOTE: DO NOT allow your FB login and password to be saved through your browser and other devices. Saving that login information makes it easier for someone else to get into your account.

Only time will tell if the changes you make, as I have described above, will keep out anyone who was logging into your FB account.

Best wishes.

How do I get back intomyoldfacebook account

Point your web browser at http://www.facebook.com

If another account comes up, log out of it by clicking the down-pointing triangle in the upper-right then clicking "Log Out."

If you then still can't log in to your account, click the "Forgot your password?" link located just below the password box on the login page.

If you're getting an error message, what does it say?

This is what I get when I try to login to facebook do you know if they are having problems? Thanks HTTP Status 404 - /login.php...

If you are using a browser that has the ability to SAVE your log in info, and you recently changed your info, the browser might be trying to log into a false link onto the FB site. I would recommend clearing your cache for this browser and going straight to the FB main page and logging in. If that doesn't work, trying using a different browser and see if you get the same error. Since it is a different browser you shouldn't.
