What to do in the event of your account being hacked

Whether you're checking your email or browsing a social network site, and notice strange activity with your account, then it has most likely been hacked.

If this has happened to you, the easiest thing you can do is change your password and make it a lot stronger. It should contain a combination of at least 1 capital letter, number, and special character.

For example, Anime_ruleZ003 (a completely made up easy to remember password).

If your account is ever gets hacked again, make your password even stronger.

***Never share your password with anybody (even if you trust that person), if you do share it, change it within a timely manner***
