Hi,

I thought that happened about 4 days ago or more??

I did a search and got this today ..... Wiki

"Just two weeks after Twitter announced it was hacked, Facebook revealed that it was hacked last month in what it called "a sophisticated attack."

There's lots of hacking going on. It used to mainly be aimed at big banks, etc. Now, they say some hackers are going after individuals, so they can steal from their bank accounts.

Too many people still use "password" as a password or "123456"
