Facebook ‘hacked’ by passport scam

1 Min Read

Facebook user Aaron Thompson has exposed an online thief who gained access to his account simply by sending the support team a fake passport to unlock the account.

It granted the “hacker” access to Mr Thompson’s personal and business Facebook pages.

Mr Thompson shared his experience on news site Reddit when he realised he was locked out of his accounts.

Facebook later restored them to him and apologised.

The social network decline to comment.
