Quote:FTC's Division of Consumer and Business Education alert recommends to all Facebook users to keep their eyes open seeing that immediately following security breaches of this size crooks are doing rounds trying to scam people out of money using cold calling tactics and trying to impersonate business partners.

Furthermore, Facebook users are encouraged to change their passwords as an extra precaution even though Facebook said that there is no need for that. Additionally, according to FTC's Division of Consumer and Business Education, changing one's security questions is also a good idea, even more so if the answers were using info available in the Facebook profile. We also recommend enabling two-factor authentication via e-mail, seeing that using your phone number for this added level of security you will also have to agree with Facebook adding it to your advertising profile and allowing advertisers to target it in future campaigns.
