Okay. I just want to add few point which may help anyone being protective. I'll break it to TWO parts as Stalkers & Hackers.
To be protective from
Hackers, you may do the following:
- Fist ever thing to do is enabling "Login Notification", which will let you know if someone else logged in (via Hacking)
- As we do in Emails, check you activities, locations, devices, you logged-in. You can find any delicious activities there
- Make sure to enable Login Approvals or Two-Factor Authentication
- Don't use the same password everywhere on the web, done Tick the Remember Password option or Keep me logged-in option. And DO use a Password Manager
- Keep your browser updated, and enable Secure Browsing
- Dont ever click on untrusted URLs, see this post if need more information
- Finally, Make sure you Log Out when you don't use the application
To be protective from
Stalkers, you may do the following:
- First ever thing you could do is blocking stalkers without seeing you in Facebook. This can be done through Privacy settings of Facebook.
- If you know a particular starker, block them through the Profile and Report them
- Stop allowing people to search your name in FB, which may make the starkers search your profile. Again it's possible thorough Privacy Settings
- Don't make every information public, which may give them clues about you and aid them in getting you
- Don't allow friend requests from everyone, but restrict them
- MORE THAN EVERY THING, use your HEAD, and be proactive, and be preventive.
