About a week after joining I got a notification in my email that I had a message. I read it, it was all broken English and did not seem to match the profile from whom it was supposed to come. I concluded someone had hijacked this girl's FB id.
The message was not in my Flirtbox messages, so FB obviously detected the scammer.
However, since then, nobody has responded to my messages. I don't think this is a coincidence, since I was responding to FB members who contacted ME. I was polite and don't think I've creeped anyone out.
I'm concerned now that people are not responding to me, cos maybe my FB id has been hijacked.
I have changed my password 3 times, using more and more secure codes. FB still tells me my password is vulnerable. WTF?
Are there security issues with this site? Is FB sketch city?

-Not a creep.

Usually scammers steal pictures from other websites. (This is why user pictures on Flirtbox are watermarked so they become useless on other sites).

your account seems to be used constantly with the same 2 ipaddresses (1 before 2007-02-28 and one after.....so no other ipaddresses in between).

"Your password is insecure" usually disappears with you add a number to your current password or another letter.
