A Katy woman said she’s scared for her life after getting threats because someone hacked into her Facebook account, pretending to sell items she’s never even seen before.

“I’m at a loss,” said Monique Sherman adding she hasn’t been able to sleep in two weeks.It all started when she was locked out of her Instagram and Facebook accounts.

“I was online actually posting and then it flickered and then it asked me to put in password. And I was like ‘ok’ put in my password, it wouldn’t work,” Sherman said.“I kept on getting activity to my phone saying I’m selling this, selling that. 73 things…chicken coops, all kinds of stuff,” she said. But Sherman said it was a fake ad selling a couch she’d never seen before, that brought people to her front door looking for the furniture they’d already paid someone else for.So far, she knows of three people showing up to her house. They had messages sent from her account that included a picture of her ID she thinks the hackers were able to access from the cloud.

Like Sherman, we tried reaching out to Meta, the company that owns Facebook and got no response. The app does offer advice for keeping your account safe that includes making sure you have a unique and private password, activating two factor authentication and login alerts.Copyright 2023 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved.
