Do Not Click “Change Password” on the Facebook Recovery Emails
Unless you just requested a password reset email to be sent from Facebook, never click on these emails to change your password.
The emails says Hi, then your name. We received a request to reset your Facebook password. Enter the following password reset code, with an eight digit number normally. Then it says, Alternatively, you can directly change your password. There is a blue button beneath that.
The email appeares to come from security@facebookmail.com.
Unfortunately this IS the legitimate email address from Facebook Official, BUT, it’s possible to spoof/fake these addresses.
You could have gotten this email because someone requested it for you and is trying to hack your account, or it might be a completely fake email which if you click the link will steal your information and provide access to your account. Be careful and don’t click anything you didn’t expect to receive!
