Facebok Safety Tips

* Add a mobile number to your account from the Mobile tab of your Account Settings page. This way we can help you get back into your account if you are locked out or compromised.
* Pick a security question for your Facebook account. You can do this from the Account Settings page. If you don’t see the option to add a security question, this means that you already have one.
* Become a fan of the Facebook Security Page for updates on new security features and information on how to protect yourself online.
* Remember that you choose what you share. And whom you share with. Think before you post, especially if what you’re sharing is sensitive. You can learn more about how to control your information on Facebook, including how to choose an audience for each and every post you make, in our Privacy Guide.
* Be careful when accessing or sending information over an unsecured public wireless network. For extra protection when you browse, turn on Secure Browsing (https). From your Account Settings page, click the "Change" link next to Account Security, check the box under "Secure Browsing (https)" and then click the "Save" button.
* Turn on login approvals. With login approvals, we text you a code anytime you log in from a new computer or mobile device. This way, no one can get into your account without access to your phone or one of your recognized devices (ex: the computer or phone you’ve saved on your Facebook account). Learn more about login approvals.
* Try a One-time Password when using public computers. If you’re ever worried about the security of the computer you’re using, we can text you a one-time password to use instead of your regular password. Once you add your mobile phone number to your account, simply text "otp" to 32665 (U.S. only) and we’ll send you a password that can be used only once.
* Keep your security information updated. This information helps us verify who you are and get you back into your account quickly if you ever get locked out. You can update your security information at any time from this page.
* Forgot to sign out of Facebook? You can now log out from anywhere. From the Account Security section of your Account Settings, you can see your recent activity (where and when you logged in) and log yourself out remotely by clicking “end activity.”
* Make sure you're logging in from a legitimate Facebook page with the facebook.com domain. Phishers use fake sites with URLs that look like Facebook.com to try to trick you into entering your login information. When in doubt, you can always type "facebook.com" into your browser to get back to the real Facebook site.
