Russian hacker stole half a million Facebook accounts

Recognised Russian hacker known by it's pseudonym Kirlos got over the Facebook users. If it's to believe Russian newspaper Vendomosti, it has been stolen from popular social network about half a million accounts. The worst thing is, that those accounts were offered for sale.

So far he has managed to sell about 700 thousand user accounts (including with passwords). One Facebook account cost $ 25.00  to $ 45.00. Probably all accounts will be used by spammers to send spam messages.

As stolen accounts can be abused for access to personal information of Facebook users, I recommend that you immediately change your access password and continue do safely use your Facebook account.
