Hati-Hati Situs Facebook Palsu !!

Baru-baru ini saya mendapatkan sebuah berita tentang sebuah situs yang mencoba melakukan penipuan kepada para pengguna Facebook dengan membuat halaman login yang mirip dengan halaman login Facebook. Adalah FBAction.net yang mencoba melakukan phishing dengan menangkap usename dan password Facebook yang diisi oleh korban dan menyimpannya dalam database mereka.

Berikut tampilan halaman FBAction.net



Untungnnya team Facebook dengan tanggap langsung memberikan solusi yang baik dengan memberikan peringatan setelah login bahwa halaman yang digunakan user untuk login adalah bukan halaman Facebook yang sesungguhnya dan menyarankan agar user mengganti password mereka sesegera mungkin.




Mudah-mudahan informasi ini dapat mengingatkan kita sebagai user Facebook untuk selalu berhati-hati....waspadalah...waspadalah

Update: ternyata situs fbaction.net telah ditutup

Permasalah seputar Facebook yang di hack
We are currently working with people whose accounts have been affected by "419" scams. Please use caution around messages from friends claiming to be stranded and asking for money. If you have received or sent a message like this, please use this form so that we can make sure your and your friends’ accounts are secure.

It is possible that malicious software was downloaded to your friend's computer or that their login information was phished in an attempt to send spam from their profile. We would like to investigate this issue further, but unfortunately, we cannot release information regarding a user’s account to anyone but the account holder. Please tell your friend to visit the Facebook Help Center and contact us.

It is possible that malicious software was downloaded to your computer or that your password was stolen by a phishing website designed to look like Facebook. Please carefully follow the steps provided:
  1. Run anti-virus software: If your computer has been infected with a virus or with malware, you will need to run anti-virus software to remove these harmful programs and keep your information secure.
  2. Reset password: From the Account Setting page, you will need to create a new password. Be sure to use a different password than you use for other sites or services, made up of a complex string of numbers, letters, and punctuation marks that is at least six characters in length. Do not use words found in the dictionary.
  3. Never click suspicious links: It is possible that your friends could unwillingly send spam, viruses, or malware through Facebook if their accounts are infected. Do not click this material and do not run any ".exe" files on your computer without knowing what they are. Also, be sure to use the most current version of your browser as they contain important security warnings and protection features. Current versions of Firefox and Internet Explorer warn you if you have navigated to a suspected phishing site, and we recommend that you upgrade your browser to the most current version. You can also find more information about phishing and how to avoid it at http://www.antiphishing.org/consumer_recs.html and http://onguardonline.gov/phishing.html.

    Phishing is an online attempt to trick a user by pretending to be an official login page or an official email from an organization that you would have an account with, such as a bank or an email provider, in order to obtain a user’s login and account information. In the case of a phishing login page, the login page may look identical to the login page you would normally go to, but the website does not belong to the organization you have an account with (the URL web address of the website should reflect this). In the case of a phishing email, the email may look like an email you would get from the organization you have an account with and get emails from, but the link in the email that it directs you to takes you to the above phishing login page, rather than a legitimate login page for that organization.

    To prevent your account information from being obtained in a phishing scheme, only log in to legitimate pages of the websites you have an account with. For example, "www.facebook.example.com" is not a legitimate Facebook page on the "www.facebook.com" domain, but "www.facebook.com/example" is a legitimate Facebook page because it has the "facebook.com" domain. When in doubt, you can always just type in "facebook.com" into your browser to return to the legitimate Facebook site.
If you are still unable to access your profile, please send us more information regarding the issue so we can investigate. Please submit your report here. (If you no longer have access to the email address associated with your Facebook account, follow this link.)

If the email on your account has been changed, or if you are unable to access your profile, please send us information about the account so we can look into it further and hopefully restore access.

  2. Have a unique, strong password: From the Account Settings page, be sure to use a different password than you use for other sites or services, made up of a complex string of numbers, letters, and punctuation marks that is at least six characters in length.

Facebook has enabled third-party websites to use Facebook’s login and authentication system through a program called Facebook Connect. Facebook Connect allows users to take their Facebook identity, network, and privacy settings with them as they browse and interact with the rest of the Web. Connect-enabled sites often provide an option to log in to Facebook directly from the site itself. When you see this, you should make sure that the login opens in a separate browser pop-up window, and that the Web address (URL) for the pop-up contains the proper "www.facebook.com" domain. If it does, you’ll know that it’s a legitimate Facebook page and not a phishing attempt, and you can log in safely and securely. Note: if you’re logged in to Facebook, the Facebook Connect partner site should only ask you to "authorize" that site.

If you have received a Facebook account confirmation email in error, it's likely that someone has mistakenly attempted to register using your email address. As long as you do not click the link contained in the email, no action will be taken, and no account will be created.

Unfortunately, Facebook did not develop the third-party poker application and cannot assist you in restoring any lost poker chips. This application is developed and operated by a third party that runs its own technical resources, and we do not have access to this data.

Please reset your password immediately for security reasons, and contact the developer of this application in regards to your situation. In order to contact the developer who created this application, please go to the application's About Page and click on the "Contact Developer" link at the bottom of the page. Facebook is not responsible for the support provided by this developer. If you continue to have problems, please note that you can remove and restrict applications from the "Applications" section of the Privacy page.

Facebook is committed to protecting your information. We have industry standard and proprietary network monitoring tools constantly running in our system in order to prevent security breaches and protect the security of your data.

In addition, Facebook always posts to a secure page when users are logging in and employs industry standard encryption. This may not always be apparent from the URL (web address), but rest assured our logins are secure.

Facebook respects your privacy. We do not distribute your user information to marketers or spammers. You can read more about this in our Privacy Policy.

If you deactivate your account from the "Deactivate Account" section on the Account page, your profile and all information associated with it are immediately made inaccessible to other Facebook users. What this means is that you effectively disappear from the Facebook service. However, if you want to reactivate at some point, we do save your profile information (friends, photos, interests, etc.), and your account will look just the way it did when you deactivated if you decide to reactivate it. Many users deactivate their accounts for temporary reasons and expect their information to be there when they return to the service.

If you do not think you will use Facebook again and would like your account deleted, please keep in mind that you will not be able to reactivate your account or retrieve any of the content or information you have added. If you would like your account permanently deleted with no option for recovery, log in to your account and then submit your request by clicking here.

Cara Mengatasi Banyaknya Undangan Di Facebook

tips facebook blok aplikasiDi Facebook banyak sekali aplikasi, kuis, group, cause, game dll yang disajikan karena game dan aplikasi tidak hanya dibuat oleh facebook, kita sebagai pengguna atau pemilik account di facebook juga dapat berpartisipasi untuk membuatnya.

Pasti banyak sekali pengguna facebook yang pernah diundang oleh beberapa orang (berulang)untuk gabung dalam sebuah aplikasi, kuis, group, cause, dan game yang sama. Misal jika ada game yang cukup terkenal dan bagus dan beberapa teman Andapun suka dan mengundang teman lainnya termasuk juga Anda. Tapi sayangnya Anda tidak begitu suka atau tidak sempat bermain game di facebook tetapi teman kita yang lain (yang baru bergabung) juga mengundang Anda untuk bermain yang berarti Anda harus mengklik tombol abaikan (ignore) terus menerus.

Dari pada Anda seperti zombie yang terus melakukan hal yang sama sebaiknya lirik bagian bawah tombol abaikan (ignore) yaitu link untuk memblokir game tersebut. Jangan takut untuk memblokir atau abaikan undangan game tersebut karena merasa tidak enak dengan teman Anda, anggap saja teman yang mengundang Anda juga mengundang teman-temannya yang lain sampai tidak ingat siapa saja yang diundang :)

Selain blok aplikasi ada juga fasilitas untuk menolak undangan dari orang tertentu yang mungkin Anda sudah terlalu kesal dengan orang tersebut karena selalu mengundang Anda untuk bergabung di aplikasi yang tidak jelas. Ya kalau demikian silakan aja klik link "Abaikan Semua Undangan dari Teman Ini" ..... jahat kah ??? :p

Intinnya belajar untuk menolak apa yang tidak Anda suka dan menghilangkan rasa tidak enakan sama teman.

Apakah Facebook Bertanggung Jawab atas Hilangnya Chip Poker Anda?

chip pokerTexas HoldEm Poker adalah sebuah aplikasi yang dikembangkan oleh pihak eksternal (third party) di Facebook yang sudah memiliki lebih dari 1,9 juta fans di halaman penggemarnya, tapi jumlah itu masih sedikit jika dibandingkan dengan penggunanya yang pasti lebih banyak lagi. Seperti pepatah yang mengatakan "ada gula ada semut", dengan banyaknya pengguna aplikasi poker tentunya mengundang semut-semut yang bertangan jahil untuk melakukan kecurangan seperti tindakan hacking & pencurian chip para usernya. Dan masalah ini saya kelompokan dalam 2 sebab yang bisa kita baca pada penjelasan berikut.


Sebab Kehilangan Chip Poker

1. Kesalahan user hammer
Akun Facebook Anda tidak disetting secara aman. Yang paling sering terjadi adalah mencantumkan email dan tanggal lahir yang dapat dilihat. Dimana email dan tanggal lahir adalah login yang digunakan untuk masuk ke Facebook. Tentu saja hal ini membuat akun Facebook bisa diakses orang dan kemudian chip anda dijarah dan menghilang.

Bukan berarti tidak boleh mencantumkan email dan tanggal lahir, ada baiknya tidak menggunakan tanggal lahir sebagai password.


2. Kesalahan pengembang aplikasi mad
Pengembang tidak dapat melindungi dan menjaga aplikasi mereka berjalan dengan semestinya, dalam arti terjadinya eror, troubleshooting, hacking dan hal-hal lainnya yang menggangu aplikasi yang menyebabkan chip menghilang.


Ok, mari kita kembali ke topic yang sesuai dengan judul Apakah Facebook bertanggung jawab atas hilangnya chip poker Anda? :)


Artikel ini didedikasikan untuk beberapa para pembaca yang bertanya :
Bagaimana cara mengembalikan chip poker yang di hack?
Kok chip poker saya hilang?
Gimana sih cara biar chip poker gw kembali?

Intinya semua bertanya bagaimana mengembalikan chip poker yang di hack/hilang confused

Berdasarkan Help Facebook http://www.facebook.com/help/?faq=14360 bisa kita dapatkan informasi bahwa :

Facebook tidak mengembangkan aplikasi poker dan tidak bisa membantu Anda mengembalikan setiap kehilangan chip poker . Aplikasi ini dikembangkan dan dioperasikan oleh pengembang eksternal yang menggunakan sumber daya teknis mereka sendiri, dan Facebook tidak memiliki akses ke data tersebut.

Jadi intinya Facebook tidak dapat membantu Anda yang kehilangan chip poker. Saya rasa informasi diatas sudah cukup menjelaskan kenapa pihak Facebok tidak bisa membantu, sekaligus menjelaskan bahwa itu bukan tanggung jawab mereka. Hal-hal yang terjadi dalam aplikasi adalah tanggung pengembang/pemilik aplikasi tersebut.

Jika memang masih berharap chip dapat kembali silakan hubungi pengembang aplikasi tersebut (cari link contact developer atau tulis di fan page). Mohon maaf artikel ini memang tidak bisa mengembalikan chip poker Anda, hanya menginformasikan kenapa chip Anda bisa hilang dan apa yang harus dilakukan. Jadi kalo memang sudah kesel kusumat karena ilang mulu chip pokernya, maen game lain aja ngacir

Ngintip Foto Facebook Dengan Ukuran Besar

Ngintip Foto Facebook Dengan Ukuran Besar

Ngintip Foto Facebook
Sedang asyiknya buka facebook salah seorang teman saya (code name : cyberfandhy) memberitahukan sebuah add-on mozila yang cukup menarik dimana dengan add-ons tersebut kita dapat melihat gambar/foto orang lain di Facebook dengan ukuran besar tanpa harus mengkliknya terlebih dahulu. Boost For Facebook adalah nama dari add-ons tersebut cukup dengan mengunjungi situs addons.mozilla.org dan pilih add to firefox kita sudah dapat menggunakan fasilitas pembesar gambar tersebut.

Keuntungannya disini kita dapat melihat gambar/foto profile orang yang bukan teman kita dengan ukuran besar. Karena gambar/foto dengan ukuran besar hanya bisa dilihat pada halaman profile dan tidak semua orang mengizinkan orang lain yang bukan temannya melihat halaman profile mereka.

Berikut contoh gambar dengan menggunakan add-ons ini
Ngintip Foto Facebook

gambar ini adalah gambar ketika saya melihat friendlist teman saya dimana gambar/foto orang yang terlihat kecil walupun kita sudah mengklik tombol kotak sebelah kanan untuk mendapatkan detail yang lebih jelas mengenai orang yang kita pilih.

Kita juga dapat menikmati fasilitas pembesaran gambar ini di setiap halaman facebook, misalnya di beranda/home dimana kita dapat melihat update terbaru tentang teman kita yang baru saja mengupload foto. Tanpa harus mengklik dan mengunjungi halaman foto mereka kita sudah dapat melihat gambar/foto berukuran besar.
