How To Provent Hackers From Hacking Your Facebook, WhatsApp and Bank Accounts

In the world today where the Internet is making things easier for us, some people (hackers) lurking around the corner are waiting for an opportunity for you to sleep so they can take advantage of your online social media and bank account. Don’t let them get to you, protect your accounts to keep them far away from you or your family and friends.

The security tips below are for Facebook, WhatsApp and Bank Accounts. This can also be applied to other networks as well.

FACEBOOK

Go to your Facebook account settings, click on it, scroll down to SECURITY, click on it, scroll to SECURITY & LOG IN, scroll to use TWO FACTOR AUTHENTICATION, click on it, fill in the information, a code will be sent to your phone number or email, save the code, never reveal the code to anyone. Each time you or someone else tries to log into your account, you’ll receive the code, and without it, your account can’t be accessed by anyone.

WHATSAPP

Click on the 3 dots at the right-hand corner side of your WhatsApp account, scroll down to SETTINGS, click on it, scroll down to ACCOUNT, click on it, scroll down to TWO STEP VERIFICATION, click on it, scroll down to activate, you will be directed to give your secret code. You’ll be prompted from time to time or when you change a device to log into your account. Don’t forget to enter your email address too. Never reveal your code to anybody.

MOBILE BANKING

If you do mobile banking from your phone, there is a need to put a PIN on your SIM. Otherwise, your account can be wiped clean anytime you lose your phone or your phone is stolen. The process is very simple, but if ignored, it can cost you all Your life savings.

For those who don’t know about it yet, just follow these simple steps to prevent hacking of your bank account through SIM THEFT. Follow these steps to set up your PUK:

  1. Go to SETTINGS on your phone
  2. Go to SECURITY and LOCATION under SETTINGS
  3. Go to SIM CARD LOCK
  4. Click on LOCK SIM CARD
  5. Enter Your mobile network default SIM CARD PIN:
    For MTN users it is 0000; For AIRTEL users it is 1111;
    For 9mobile users it is 0000;
    For GLO users it is 0000;
  6. After entering the MOBILE NETWORK DEFAULT PIN, under it You will see “CHANGE SIM PIN”, click on it to change to your unique 4-digit pin
  7. Confirm your unique 4-digit PIN by entering it again, and YOU ARE DONE.

So anytime You “On” Your phone You will be prompted to enter Your SIM CARD PIN just as You will be prompted to enter Your phone lock PIN or Draw Your PATTERN each time You “START” (ON) Your phone.

With the ACTIVATION OF SIM LOCK on Your phone, Your money can never be withdrawn from Your bank account through your SIM because Your SIM will be useless in their hands since it is blocked and You will not be under tension to go and block or retrieve Your stolen SIM.

Please kindly share this information with Your loved ones because the rate of phone theft these days is alarming as they (phone thieves) are not just after the phone but SIM CARDS linked to Your bank account.

NB: WITH THIS INFORMATION, YOUR ACCOUNTS ARE WELL-SECURED AND SAVED FROM HACKERS AND SCAMMERS; THANKS.
