I got that message the other day in my email and was already logged into FB at the time. Another way for scammers to take advantage of any thing that becomes to popular. Now if hackers wanted to be productive they could trace back who does this and attack them back with their own medicine.

I got an email alerting me that my password had been changed, and I don't even have a Facebook account! Sad thing is... my kids probably would have opened it. eek
