Janet and I have a list of several of our member's numbers for when things like this happen. I'll send you my phone number so you can get a hold of me if something happens again. I do have Gayle's number.

I have never heard of such a thing. I am so sorry you had this happen to you.

I've now heard of 5 other people who got hacked, too. I've heard of 2 who sent money. I got an email from the Facebook fraud/abuse division, telling me to change my email (Yahoo) password since that's where they got in. They said they are working with the FBI and that thousands of people were hacked.

I'm glad facebook was responsive to you! I just don't understand hackers - people never cease to amaze me - and not in a good way either!

[Janet]

I'm with you Gayle. I personally think they are a waste of life.

[DianaB]

I don't understand that or people who make the viruses that cause so much trouble. It sounds like these hackers were after money.

The bad and scary thing is that they are getting the money!

Did you get back on FB? You can set up another email address and try that.

How is your friend able to get her money back? Good thing she is!

I'm pming my number.

Sandy....I want to know what the answer to what Judy asked too....lol.

I have a friend request from you and okay'd it on FB. I asked on FB if it's really you, but I'm asking here too. Can never be too careful.

Janet, I think it is her. I accepted and went to her page and it looks legit!!

[Tiramisu]

It's me! I had used another email address to open a second account, but when they got the first one cleared up, I went back there and de-activated the second account.

Looks like my friend won't get her money back, something about Western Union only guaranteeing amounts over $1000. There are some very suspicious things going on with my friend. She changed her cell phone number, closed her FB account, and closed an email address. I'm watching to see where it goes!

[Janet]

That's horrible that she won't get her money back. What's going on with her that is suspicious? Sometimes I'm so dense....lol

[DianaB]

Oh no!! I can't believe that your friend isn't going to get her money back. I feel so bad for her. That just stinks!!!!

[Tiramisu]

She says she and her mother had 4 friends get hacked that day and they had sent money to all of them. NOBODY'S THAT STUPID! I asked her to give me the Western Union receipt so I could pay her back and she can't find it. I asked her to go get a copy from WU and she says they don't keep copies of transactions. I am really concerned that her and/or her mother are the ones who caused this. Why would she change her cell phone number, email address, and is even changing jobs?

[DianaB]

That is a little weird. They had 4 friends that got hacked? Something doesn't quite add up, does it?
