Keep Your Facebook Poker Chips Safe from Hackers and Phishers in Facebook Texas Holdem Poker
Facebook Texas Holdem poker is one of the most popular online gaming platforms for social networking websites. With this popularity have come the hackers and phishers who endlessly try to steal players' facebook
poker chips in the game. Player forums are awash with posts by people who have had their accounts broken into by thieves looking to gain access to their accounts for the sole purpose of getting their hands on their facebook poker chips. Imagine the suprise and shock of someone who has worked weeks to build up their points in the game only to login one day and find their accounts left with 0 points. There may be ways to get your poker chips credited back to your account by contacting Facebook staff and explaining the situation, but that could take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, and even then it's not guranteed to work. The best thing to do is to take a few steps to ensure that your account doesn't get hacked in the first place:
1) Don't fall for lottery scams. One of the more popular scams making the rounds on facebook and myspace is the lottery scam, where phishers send players in the game a fake message claiming that they won an in game lottery awarding them a certain amount of facebook poker chips. Then they instruct them to click on a link or email their personal login information to a certain email address so that the points can be credited to your account. Instead of getting free chips, the hackers use their login information to empty their accounts of any chips.
2) Don't download cheat programs from sites you don't trust. Many players search the internet for cheats for facebook poker or facebook poker bots that play the game for them and win chips with the consistency of robotic programs. Hackers sometime attach trojan virus programs to these cheats or bots that install themselves on the hardrives of players who download them. Then they log their details next time they sign into Facebook or MySpace and send them via the internet to hackers waiting patiently to steal their facebook chips. Try to avoid the temptation to use facebook poker bots or cheats.
3) Don't reveal your email address on your facebook or myspace profile. Clever hackers have been known to send requests to add people with the sole purpose of obtaining their email
address from their public profile. Then they use their email address and try to guess their passwords or use 'brute force' hacking programs to automatically try common phrases used for passwords
You don't have to be a computer genius or security expert to keep your facebook poker chips safe from hackers With these steps and a little commons sense you can keep your account secure and avoid embarrassing intrusions into your social networking accounts.
Phil Laak
Name: Phil Laak
DOB: 8th September 1972
Nationality: American
Tournament winnings: $1.98m
Nickname: The Unabomber
Greatest moment: Playing in five seasons of High Stakes Poker
Formerly a world-class backgammon player, Dublin-born Phil Laak made his name with a series of impressive tournament cashes on the World Poker Tour throughout 2004. Rarely seen without a hooded sweater and sunglasses, the ‘Unabomber’ quickly became famous for his table banter, great friendship with Antonio Esfandiari and string of wacky prop bets.
Laak’s biggest tournament victory to date came at the 2009 PartyPoker.com World Poker Open, where he took home $250,000 and overcame a final table including Luke ‘FullFlush’ Schwartz and Mike Sexton. Phil is yet to secure a WSOP bracelet yet came close in 2005, finishing second in the $2,500 Pot-limit Hold’em event behind Johnny Chan.
Despite a string of successful tournament results, Laak makes his living primarily through cash games in the Los Angeles area. Laak has been a regular player on the famous TV show High Stakes Poker, competing in all seasons except for season one. Season 5 saw him tangle with Patrik Antonius in one of the series’ most talked-about hands. Laak bluffed all three streets with A-J, finally betting $80,000 on the river of a 3s-2h-4h-Ks-Qd board. Antonius, however, called with just Ts-4s to win the $287,400 pot.
Alongside best friend Antonio Esfandiari, Phil also presents the TV show I Bet You – which gives an insight into the poker pro’s high-stakes wagering on anything and everything. Phil Laak is also in a long-term relationship with Bullets Over Broadway actress and WSOP bracelet winner Jennifer Tilly.
