Was my Facebook hacked? Here’s how to check if your data was stolen

Hackers stole personal data from 29 million Facebook users in a recent hack, including information like phone numbers, emails, gender, hometowns and even relationship data.

Was your data stolen? (Mine was.) There’s an easy way to check. Visit this Help Center page on Facebook’s website and log in to your account. It will tell you whether or not your data was stolen, and which data in particular.
