Hey - since it's quite obvious that these quacks can get whatever information they want - my cell phone number is 281-468-7394.

My friend that wired them $900 is supposed to have her money back today or tomorrow. I scolded her royally for believing them. We emailed each other on Friday, talking about my trip to my son's for the weekend. She knows that I don't travel out of the states. She said she just really thought she was talking to me. Another friend was falling for it, but asked them a question about one of my grand daughters who is the same age as his daughter and they couldn't give him the answer.

Of course, I can't get into FB now because they can't find my email address BECAUSE THE HACKER CHANGED. I want to get back on because I dearly enjoy looking at pictures and hearing from my friends and family.

This is happening to several people - not just me!

I'm just glad you're safe, but I was willing to help you with what I could. I just got suspicious because I hadn't read anywhere where you were going to London. I'm so thankful Judy had your number and checked it out with you and that you were safe and sound.

Darn hackers anyway. You'd think that as big as FB is, they would have a much better security system. Not sure how all that works, but there has got to be something they could do.

I saved your number in my cell phone. There should be a way to get back on FB...but I don't have a clue how. I'm so sorry this happened to you.

I'm so sorry that this happened to you. I read of this happening to other people on FB so I would have been really leary if I would have been aproached about sending money. I hope that you can get a hold of some agency to go after this guy!! I can't believe that some of you chatted with him!! Wow!! I have you on my friend list but I didn't receive anything. I'm so sorry that this happened to you.

wow, thats scary...I heard a couple weeks ago hackers got into FB and into twitter, I got out imm. when news came on and said that!...

You can make another account, and if it comes up that email is already in use, you can change it to new account deleting the old, I think!..if you think they got into your mail too I would print out all your contacts and make a new email addy..better to be safe than sorry....

We had someone get ahold of my debit card number and pin a few weeks ago, and dont know how or when it happened, I guess it happened with alot of ppl in Knoxville too, secret service is envolved so hopefully it is over for us...

Good luck, to you! I hope you can get it all straightened out!

I'm really enjoying Facebook. Yes, I've gotten addicted to Farmville, Farm Town, and Island Paradise, not to mention the quick games available. I got a treat this morning that one of my high school classmates found me (Pitkin High School Class of 1969)!

Isn't it wonderful to have people from your past find you on FB? I've had a few surprises like that too. We don't have much to say to each other but it's still pretty cool!!!

I haven't gotten into any games on FB. I spend so much time on the computer that I just can't get into the games. Sometimes I have hubby standing over me with a frown or he's mumbling......not good signs!!! (Especially when the house is messy!!)

I am enjoying FB too. It is a lot of fun, and as my neice says, "it's a good time-waster"! LOL!
