Hacking pages
However, the vast majority of users have experienced that they have been hacked at least once by Odnoklassniki. What to do in this case? The first question that arises in the victim is: “Who and why could do this?” Well, firstly, this is how novice hackers can have fun. And secondly, spammers work in a similar way. Suppose it was they who hacked Odnoklassniki. What should a stranger do on your page? The spammer uses third-party accounts to send ads, viruses, and fraudulent offers that siphon money from the unsuspecting people. So, for example, friends on your behalf may receive requests to send money to a phone or bank card that allegedly belongs to you, messages with a seemingly useful program that will infect them with a virus, etc. The owner of the profile may also become their victim. When he tries to access his page, he will be denied access, but he will be offered alternative options, thanks to which you can purchase an endless stream of advertising on your phone or lose a certain amount of money.
Resuscitation of the page
You should be extremely vigilant if you have been hacked by Odnoklassniki. What to do to restore yourpersonal page? The first thing to do is clear your browsing history. It is best to do this with special programs such as "Cleaner", however, the option in the settings (upper right corner) will be enough. Then the machine needs to be rebooted, this will allow it to completely “digest” the changes that have occurred. Then, using the e-mail or phone number used when registering on the network, replace the old password with a new one. To do this, click on the "Forgot password" button and follow the prompts. Combinations of small and large letters mixed with numbers are considered more reliable.
Hack prevention
If Odnoklassniki has already hacked you once, what should you do to prevent this from happening again? Get yourself a good antivirus. Do not access the Internet without making sure that the protection is active. Periodically change the passwords for the page and mailbox, using strong combinations that are not tied to the date of birth or other dates that are easy to calculate. Do not trust your login, password and other data to strangers and do not disclose them on any resources. These measures will significantly reduce the chances of burglars profiting at your expense. And one more piece of advice. After recovering your account, set the status that your page has been attacked, or notify your friends in another way. This will help avoid resentment and misunderstandings, because you do not know what exactly happened on your page and what mailings were sent from it.
