Very successful, and surprisingly crude. Because I don't usually log in to FB Messenger I saw nothing odd in being asked to confirm my ID! I have now changed a number of important passwords - just in case. It was noticeable that Zuckerberg's magic garden (a) was very clunky in the way it suggested I...

So that message from Adrian isn't real either?
