A few weeks ago, Facebook admitted that up to 50 millions of accounts were affected by an online attack.
Today the company published more about the data that were leaked, but also developed a tool that can let you know if your account information has been leaked.
Such as we mentioned In the morning, Facebook confirmed that hackers had stolen access tokens "only" from 30 million members of the social network, and not from the 50 million that were initially reported.
From 15 millions of these accounts, hackers could only get the phone number, e-mail address, or both. From 14 million accounts, hackers have been able to obtain more information such as username, gender, state of affairs, religion, birthdays and more.
But as of today, the company reportedly knows exactly which accounts were affected, and with a page it published, it lets us check if our data is circulating on the internet.network.
You can check if you have been affected by the hack by visiting the Facebook Help Center. Towards the bottom, you will see a notification (see below picture), η οποία θα αναφέρει αν είστε από τα θύματα του hack. Στην παρακάτω εικόνα φαίνεται ότι ο account it has not been tampered with.

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.
