A few weeks ago, Facebook admitted that up to 50 millions of accounts were affected by an online attack.
Today, the company has published more about leaked data, but has also developed a tool that can tell you if information has leaked from your account.
Such as we mentioned in the morning, Facebook confirmed that hackers stole tokens accesss "only" from 30 million members of the social network, and not from the 50 million that had been reported at the beginning.
Out of 15 million of these accounts, the hackers were only able to obtain the phone number, address ηλεκτρονικού ταχυδρομείου ή και τα δύο. Από 14 εκατομμύρια λογαριασμούς, οι hackers μπόρεσαν να αποκτήσουν περισσότερες πληροφορίες, όπως το name user, gender, relationship status, religion, birthday and various others.
But today, the company claims to know exactly what accounts were affected, and with a page that we posted lets us check if our data is on the Internet.
You can check if you are affected by hacking with a visit to the Facebook Help Center. Below, you'll see a notification (see the following figure), which will tell you if you are a victim of hacking. The picture below shows that the account has not been violated.

It is worth mentioning that the Facebook hackers were not able to steal them codeof your access.
If you find that your account has been compromised, it will be to wait for more attacks. The leaked information could be used by hackers to respond to security questions on other pages to restore your password. So if you have used this information and elsewhere it would be good to change it.
