Recently there was an incident where an unknown person hacked into someone’s Twitter account and this got me thinking, what if it was a client’s account! What do you do? Will your boss understand? Will the client stomach this?

Before the storm could calm down. Yesterday night someone tried to hack into one of the Facebook pages that I handle. It freaked me out. I was scared. Thank the heavens, I was online and noticed this early enough. The thing with hackers, they get into your account and take everything you ever worked for. They are like the devil at the cross. They don’t care. They are here to steal like death.

I had to activate the two-step verification on my Facebook account just like I had done with my other accounts.

Here Are A few Steps To get Your Account Safe From Hackers

Your account can be hacked at any time and this could ruin your digital identity. This is not only for social media managers, digital influencers, top societal personalities but for everyone. We are all exposed to third parties who could hack into our accounts and misuse our personal information.
1. Enable the two-step verification for all your accounts.
2. Set strong and different passwords for your social media accounts.
3. Be keen when clicking on links.
4. Always log out your account or email in case you have used a public device.
