*I prefer to use MalwareBytes because it has a good quality on scanning malware on your computer
How can we avoid phishing?
Many phishers attempt to trick people with fake offers of free, rare, secret or exclusive digital goods (ex: coins, chips, gifts, etc.).
always look at the ADDRESS BAR if you are surfing on facebook and you have clicked a link and you have been redirected to a Facebook Login Page
THINK TWICE
make sure to check the URL at the address bar if you didn't see www.facebook.com and the url is different then dont even try to log in
because its a phishing site
the other type of hacking your password is what we called KEY LOGGER
when you are using public computers and you are going to check your facebook account make sure to use the On-Screen Keyboard Located at
Start>All Programs> Accessories>Ease of Access
and you will see the On-Screen Keyboard
use it instead of your keyboard in entering your password
