My first world problem - Facebook 'hacked'

    Well lads,

    Turns out my Facebook account has been 'hacked' (using that term lightly).

    I stupidly had a very easy-to-guess security question on my email account, which in turn allowed some cúnt to send a Facebook password-reset to my email account and therefore access my Facebook account.

    I've tried logging into both accounts, using my original passwords and the security questions, but they've gone and changed them too. It seems they've deactivated/deleted my Facebook account.

    Have no idea who would have done it, but obviously someone who knows me (and the security question was "my best childhood friend" so it was obviously someone who knew me or is very good at guessing names).

    Is there anything I can do here? Should I bother to contact Facebook about it? And have any laws been broken here by this fúckface?

    I don't give a **** about the Facebook account itself, but rather the privacy invasion here...had some important and private messages, which I'm sure they've had a good nose at. Bastards!!

    I see what you mean and I am slightly happy that I no longer have access to FaecesBook, but the privacy issue here is annoying me.

    The worst is when they change your status to: (.|.)
