Recently, cybercriminals are increasingly trying to guess passwords to people's accounts on social networks in order to send spam, malicious links, files, receive valuable information, and spy on someone. Therefore, users complain about the pages, which is why the administration blocks them. But what should the innocent victims do in this case?
How to unblock a page
If someone has entered the wrong password in the login form many times using your email account, you can restore access to your account by asking the system to send the code to your mobile phone. After all, when you enter the numbers on the site, you will confirm that you are not a bot, and therefore you can immediately enter your classmates. But what if the mobile phone is not linked to the page? Contact technical support. Of course, this will take much longer than recovering with code, but there will be no other way out. Fill out the form using your real details, write about your problem, provide proof of hacking.
In addition, on the Internet, you could stumble upon a malicious program that blocks access to classmates by modifying the hosts file. To get rid of it safely, go to the C: / WINDOWS / system32 / drivers / etc / folder, open the infected hosts document with notepad and delete all addresses except 127.0.0.1 localhost. After that, do not forget to check your computer with an antivirus, clear the cache. Sometimes it may be necessary to restore (rollback) the system.
Periodically scan the system with an antivirus, check the correctness of the address of the site you are logged on to, do not give your account data to anyone, do not enter it on suspicious resources.
How not to get scammed
Always carefully check the URL of the site you are logged on to. You may inadvertently find classmates who outwardly look like real ones, but in fact belong to scammers and lose some amount of money trying to regain access to their account. Also, cybercriminals like to steal data in order to use it for their own purposes (distribution of malicious advertisements, information, etc.).
If you are vigilant, you will not fall for the tricks of fraudsters, you will not lose your page on Odnoklassniki, and with it the connection with friends, acquaintances, relatives.
If you encounter false blocking in classmates, do not send paid messages or similar. After all, a real social network will never think of making money on this, it was created for free communication of people around the world. Better try to scan folders, files, documents using Dr. Web and AVZ. In most cases, they help to cope with the problem.
If you find your account blocked at work, then don't worry. This was most likely done by the administrator so that you don't get distracted. At home, you can safely go to the site.
