< 1 min read

  1. Change your passwords: As soon as possible, create a strong, unique password for each account and change any other accounts with similar passwords.
  2. Check settings and delete posts: Review your account settings to ensure they are secure and delete any posts put up by the hackers.
  3. Turn on two-factor authentication: If available, enable two-factor authentication (like a code sent to your phone) for additional account security.
  4. Report the activity: Report spam, hacked accounts, phishing messages, and other inapproperiate activities to the social media platform.

    Monitor your accounts for suspicious activity: Monitor your accounts for any suspicious activity for the next several months.
