Check your Facebook NOW – someone might be secretly watching everything you do
IF you've noticed some strange activity on your Facebook recently someone may have gained access to your account.

Signs you've been compromised include weird posts you did not put up or 'friends' you don't recall accepting.
But thankfully there is a way to work out if your suspicions are true.
