10 Facebook Setting Tricks You Must Try To Keep Your Account Safe From Prying Eyes

7. Post to Facebook, when not on Facebook

Use the ‘post by email’ feature which allows you to post status and pictures. Click on “Settings,” and hover on the left side of the screen and click “Mobile.” The post-by-email address will be listed at the bottom of your mobile information. Note that this will only work once you’ve allowed Facebook texts by mentioning your phone number.

8. Add the names of three friends to be your trusted contacts, in case you get locked out

Facebook allows you to mention three to five ‘trusted contacts’ who can get a special, one-time security code from Facebook through a special URL when you accidentally get blocked from login. To enable this, go to “Settings,” select “Security” in the left column and hit “Choose trusted contacts” in the “Trusted Contacts” column.
