Re: Facebook issues - don't panic

I was having some problems this morning with Instagram.  Went to another browser and the same so I just felt the fault was on the site and not mine.  Checked again a few minutes ago and all is working fine now.

I just logged into Facebook.  Looks ok.

My DH was worried about a hack, but I said wait.  So we did, and voila it's back.

Re: Facebook issues - don't panic

Too late for me too.  I was actually online and it kicked me out.  As it is, I've already lost a gardening group I was in a few months ago due to either a hack or a facebook glitch.  They blocked me, so I can't even see them to plead my case. So, I panicked since I was afraid a hacker might mess with the groups that I own.  

 

I tried to reset my password and that worked but it wouldn't accept changing the password, or so I thought.  THEN, I thought to check Down Detector.  

 

I'm able to get back in now using the new password I was trying to change it to, so I guess it did go through.  But, I'm still unable to get in on my phone.  Not a huge deal.  I rarely use my phone for FB except sometimes when I'm away from the house.

Last night on the news, they said there was a scam going on in facebook, not to click on any links.

@Zitawins , I am sure it is not a matter of surviving but most people were concerned they were hacked and wanting to let other people know it is widespread.
