Cybercriminal attack on Facebook
I was recently the victim of a cyberscam by criminals in London who hacked into my Facebook account (perhaps using my yahoo email account) to pretend I was in London in financial straits and needing money from friends to get home.
Well, I have never been in London; but I did learn some valuable lessons about passwords–change them periodically.
I’m back up and hopefully some smarter. BTW, this is the second time someone has attempted to steal my identity–beware.
Kindly,
Phil

Dear Bro.Phil Sanders
Some hackers changed my yaho id pass word and delited all of my contacts list. So that i missed many of my friends.I did not understand how it is possible to them. But they enter in to my yahoo groups. They tried to fix there email there. That is the problem with hackers.

It is interesting that this happened to you. Locally, this happened to a heating/air condition fellow. I called the office and learned it was a scam. Hopefully, no one was taken in by it.
