These are random musings of my life journey, the people, animals, places, and events which have woven, and continue to weave, a tapestry that is me. We all know there is no real destination, only the ongoing experiences which blend together, creating the trail. Each step gives a glimpse of what is to come, without allowing me to see the end result. It is exciting. I have a home base that is mine, that gives me a place to rest. This is it. This is where my heart is, no matter where I journey...................

Facebook phished!!!!

MY FACEBOOK ACCOUNT WAS PHISHED!!!!

IF YOU GET A MESSAGE FROM ME IN CHAT ON FACEBOOK, DO NOT OPEN IT!!!


I CAN NOT GET THE SECURITY RESET, AFTER GOING THROUGH IT OVER A DOZEN TIMES, SO I CANNOT ACCESS THE ACCOUNT TO WARN PEOPLE THERE. I AM EXTREMELY FRUSTRATED AND APOLOGIZE TO THOSE OF YOU WHO READ HERE.

IF ANYONE KNOWS HOW TO ACCESS PEOPLE AT FACEBOOK, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I'VE BEEN READING THE "HELP" TOPICS FOR ALMOST THREE HOURS AND NO HELP IS THERE. OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND I SEE NO SOLUTIONS YET.


GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  3. I'm not hopeful that I can get it worked out. I read about 10-12 people who had similar problems and could not get it corrected, so they began new accounts. I may have to do that myself. I'm really aggravated!

    Ruth, when I tried to sign on after this happened, FB informed me that the account was temporarily suspended because it appeared I had been phished. that's when I started trying to fix it, going step by step through their process without success, over and over and over. ARGHHH!

  5. I got it fixed this morning, thank goodness.

    Donna, FB would not even let me follow a link like you sent. Thanks for the help, however. I was beside myself!! I finally just gave up, out of frustration, slept on it, and this morning it was reinstated on the first walk through the process. Whew!

If you have something to say about it, just stick out your thumb, and I'll slow down so you can hop aboard! But hang on, 'cause I'm movin' on down the road!!! No time to waste!!!
