My facebook account was compromised today. See the attached email. So if you're wondering why I'm not on here for a while, it's because Facebook think I have Malware or a Virus on my PC. I'm scanning and fixing as I type, but please be aware of any phishing attacks aimed at your own accounts or PC's. I'll be back soon, in the mean time, here's what facebook had to say:
