Social networks are firmly rooted in the lives of most people with access to the World Wide Web. At the beginning of 2013, Odnoklassniki had over 205 million registered users from different countries around the world. After all, here you can chat with friends and like-minded people, listen to music, cheer yourself up with funny videos or find out the latest news on a global scale and your hometown. Thanks to this social network, many people scattered across countries and cities have found each other and are chatting or calling back for free (you just need to go there). The Odnoklassniki website and watching friends' tapes over a cup of morning coffee or during a break at work - for many this has become a kind of ritual.
A lot of site features
Registration is completely free and takes a few minutes. It is preferable to bind the page to a valid phone number, this will allow you to easily restore your login information if you accidentally forget it. That's it, you can storm Odnoklassniki. Entering the site with a password ensures that your correspondence and other activities are not visible to those to whom it is not intended. The main thing - do not forget to press the "Exit" button at the end of work. Thanks to the settings, you can edit access to your page, enable or disable writing messages to you, comment on posts and photos.
Hacking Pages
However, the vast majority of users were faced with the fact that they had been hacked by Odnoklassniki at least once. What to do in this case? The first question that arises for the victim: “Who and why could he have done this?” Well, firstly, novice hackers can have fun. And secondly, spammers work in this way. Let's say they hacked Odnoklassniki. What should an outsider do on your page? A spammer uses extraneous accounts to send advertisements, viruses, and fraudulent offers involving pumping unsuspecting people from finance. So, for example, friends on your behalf may receive requests to send money to a phone or bank card allegedly belonging to you, messages with a kind of useful program that will bring them a virus, etc. The profile owner himself may also be their victim. When you try to access your page, he will be denied access, but they will offer alternative options, thanks to which you can purchase a stream of endless advertising on your phone or lose a certain amount of money.
Page Resuscitation
It should be extremely vigilant if you have been hacked by Odnoklassniki. What to do to restore your personal page? The first thing to do is to clear the history of the Internet browser. This is best done with special programs such as “Cliner”, 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 during registration on the network, replace the previous 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.
Hacking Prevention
If Odnoklassniki has already hacked you once, what should you do to prevent this from happening again? Install yourself a quality antivirus program. Do not go online without making sure that protection is active. Periodically change the passwords for the page and mailbox, using strong combinations that are not tied to a date of birth or other dates that are easy to calculate. Do not trust the username, password and other data to strangers and do not disclose them to any resources. These measures will significantly reduce the chances of crackers to profit from you. And one more tip. After recovering your account, set the status that your page has been attacked, or notify your friends in another way. This will help to avoid insults and misunderstandings, because you don’t know what exactly happened on your page and what newsletters were sent from it.
