It is advisable to change your Facebook password frequently. Facebook can be the spot where one can access almost every personal detail of yours. Using a strong password during the Facebook sign-up will always protect you from scams. On the other hand, you can be on the safer side if you keep changing your password on a regular routine. Whenever you feel that someone has accessed your system or when you get some warning notification of an attempt to access your Facebook, change the password immediately.
