while you’re logged in on Facebook and scroll down to the section « Is my Facebook account impacted by this security issue? »
You will see a Yes or No answer. If it’s a Yes you will see what of your Facebook account information hackers accessed.
What should you do if you were hacked?
While there is no evidence that hackers actually know your password we still recommend changing it. Besides that, you should be even more alert for phishing attempts or scam emails.
Hackers may also have enough personal information to answer security questions and thus gaining access to your accounts. So it’s more important to make sure that all your security questions are safe than changing the actual passwords of your accounts.
