Which? responds as further Facebook breach details emerge

Alex Neill, Which? Managing Director of Home Products and Services, said:

“With further facts about Facebook’s data breach emerging, many users will be deeply concerned. It is critical that the company does all that it can to ensure the victims identified get clear information about what has happened and assists anyone negatively impacted.

“Anyone affected by the hack should consider changing their password, check credit reports and monitor bank and other online accounts. They may be vulnerable to identity fraud and should be wary of contact out of the blue as scammers may try to take advantage of it.”
