G'day Mate. Just left Facebook and had no problems. I would tend to be very careful of providing that info in an open forum.
Cheers

It appears you've been "hijacked".  Be careful.

I joined Facebook when it first came out, just to see what it is about. Never put anything on it and never will...

Have not had that happen Karen, but I would be a bit wary of it.


Still in Redcliffe?

I had to do that after my account was hacked. Changed the password etc. I would suggest to change your password often as hackers are smart little animals and can do some nasty stuff. I change mine every month.

Cheers

Hello Rocket

This is normal with Facebook if you have logged out and then try to login again from

Either a different Computer ( with a different account )

Or

You have more than 1 Google accounts and try to login from an account that is not connected to the  Facebook  account that you want

Or

You have tried a few times to login and made a mistake with your password.

What Google wants the information for is to be certain that if you want them to send you your password that they have the correct person who actually owns the Facebook account.

I hope that makes sense.

Do any of these circumstances apply to you ??

If not then it is a worry .

If you have had several failed attempts with your password than it is good.
