Not that we are aware of and certainly hope not.

Assuming you have judging by question?

If you have had a conversation with him before, the filters will not block him. As to how he has infiltrated your profile, no idea unless you have given out your log in details, however consider asking the question in the Site Help forum as the admin staff might be able to help.

In that case, change your log in details and password, don't click remember password or the keep logged in option

dont really see what anyone has to gain by hacking your fab account, unless your putting your bank details on it for some reason.

I am confused... to me it sounds as if the guy was just using a ruse to get you to talk to him. All he did was send you a message, what makes you think he hacked your account?

If in doubt change your password and change the email account.

O o O oo

Why do you think he hacked you?

Mistaken identity? maybe he thought you were someone else that he had looked at.

Don't know how he would have hacked into your account, don't quite understand your reasoning behind your explanation?

We never added this guy and he messaged us to say thanks for adding him as a friend which we didn't add him when we messaged him to tackle him about it he was no longer on the site hope this all makes sense

It's an old trick!

Message someone pretending you've made previous contact or winked/added them - just in an attempt to strike up a conversation and get you to view them.

I wouldn't worry - highly unlikely you've been hacked - but as others have said, it's simple to change your log in details!!

Maybe you added by mistake? I know we have winked and added people by accident ( if anyone has had a wink or add from us ignore it )

Perving is a good thing

The reason I found out was looking at our own profile it says we winked ourselves last month Silly mouse I think I will blame it on.

Key logging software can do it for PCs and laptops.

Wifi vulnerabilities are easier however. People dont know how vulnerable wifi is to people with the right equipment.

Did you just get a message from the guy? Nothing more? Sounds like the moist basic kind of 'draw you out' cut n paste messages that get sent out. Had a few. Just ignore them. He probably disappeared as someone reported him... assuming it was a 'him' of course...

We get messages similar to this and it's usually people just trying it on. They do it to strike up a conversation or get you to look at their profile.
