Foolproof way to see if someone's spying on your Facebook account

Keep an eye out for snoopers

We all know about keeping ourselves safe online, but as hackers and scammers get more advanced by the day, we're warned to keep our wits about us.

This can be especially prevalent on social media platforms where we might be giving away more information than we ever expected.

More than this, leaving our social media accounts open can lead to some unwanted attention from those who we don't want to be.

Whether it's the school bully or a jealous ex, there are some people you don't want keeping tabs on what you've been up to.

While it's as simple as making your account private, you shouldn't have to do that.

Even though some have abandoned Facebook over its controversial changes to its community guidelines, billions of people use the social media service every day.

With so many active users, you should periodically be checking who's logged into your Facebook account and ensure you're the only one who has access.

From your weekend plans to personal details and maybe even bank accounts, your Facebook can be a treasure trove of information if bad actors know where to look.

Thankfully, there's an easy way to check who's been snooping on your Facebook account and whether someone has gained access without you knowing.

Via either PC or mobile, you can quickly take a look at your cybersecurity and who's logged into your Facebook account.

If someone isn't meant to be there, it's a case of removing them and then changing your password to ensure they can't get back in.

How to check who's in your Facebook account on PC:

Open your account center via the following link, or manually navigate there by opening Facebook on your browser.

Select the profile icon in the top right corner, head to 'Settings & privacy', click ‘Settings', and then 'Accounts Center' in the top left.

After picking 'See more in Accounts Center', click 'Password and Security', and then find 'Where you're logged in' under 'Security checks'.

You'll be greeted by a pop-up that reveals your name and where you're logged in, as well as any other devices that have access.

The Facebook app is just as simple:

  1. Select the profile icon in the bottom right corner
  2. Settings & Privacy
  3. Choose Settings
  4. Tap See more in Accounts Center
  5. Password and security
  6. Select 'Where you’re logged in'

We're also told to look out for linked apps and websites that could have unauthorized access to your account.

Hackers can secretly access your data this way, so check what's going on behind the scenes by navigating to this link and removing permissions for anything that looks suspect or you don't remember granting access to.

Even though the days of being 'fraped' and someone changing your Facebook status to something embarrassing if you left your computer unattended at school might thankfully be behind us, there's the altogether bigger issue of hackers getting inside our accounts.
