How To Use Facebook Messenger Without A Facebook Account


You Can Now Use Facebook Messenger Without A Facebook Account, Know How With over one billion users worldwide, Facebook Messenger is now one of the biggest messaging platforms worldwide. In order to have a Facebook Messenger app on your device, you need to have an active Facebook account. 

 However, there are a lot of reasons that many people may not want to use Facebook but only the Messenger app. For instance, Facebook staples like pyramid schemes, political debates, and pointless status updates can fill some users with rage and using such a social media site is a big no-no for them.

How to enable Facebook's essential new security feature

If you’re worried about hackers taking over your Facebook account, you’ll be heartened to hear that as of this week, Facebook has added support for USB key two-factor authentication to improve account security. Two-factor authentication (called “2FA” by cybersecurity nerds) requires an extra token in addition to your password to prove your identity when logging into online services. This prevents someone with your password to access your account. Previously, Facebook supported SMS and app-based 2FA, which prompt you to type in a number sent to your phone. 

 Physical 2FA replaces numbers with a USB key you plug into your PC or Mac. In addition to providing a more user-friendly experience, USB keys are also more secure than mobile apps and SMS because they’re immune to phishing and man-in-the-middle attacks, two common kinds of attacks used by hackers. Other services such as Dropbox, Google, GitHub, and Salesforce have been supporting USB keys for years. 

If you’ve been using a YubiKey or any other stick employing the U2F standard to secure those accounts, you can use the same key for your Facebook account.

MMM Nigeria returns, promises to pay the poor before the rich

MMM Nigeria is back, 24 hours earlier than promised. 

 The Ponzi scheme, which froze participants’ accounts for a month, was scheduled to return on January 14, 2017, but returned at about 11 am on January 13, 2017. In a statement announcing its return, MMM said it was setting a limit on daily withdrawals, in order to control panic withdrawals. “The holidays are over, and we’re now open. Just as promised. (You might have already noticed that we always stick to our promises),”

 Sergey Mavrodi, MMM founder, said via the statement. “Actually, we promised to be open on January 14, but we’re open now, January 13, as you can see, which is a day earlier. (Well, I hope, the members of the System will forgive us for that). 

 “It’s related to the hysteria raised by the authorities and the mass media around MMM. By joining forces, they’ve managed to nearly give the members of the System a heart attack and have frightened them out of their wits. “Poor souls don’t know what to expect. Will we open again or not? This is why we’ve decided, considering the situation, to reach out to the members, reassure and cheer them up by opening a little earlier.” 

 Citing panic withdrawals as a reason, MMM Nigeria said payments would take a few days. It called on the media to “leave the scheme alone”. “As of this notice, MMM resumes its usual operation. You can now create your GH-requests. However, it’s obvious that panic will reign in the first few days after the re-opening of the System. We’re likely to be deluged by GH-requests. 

 “Therefore, we’re going to make gradual paybacks by setting internal output limits. In other words, we will only pay a certain amount per day. Please, be prepared to wait for a couple of days. We are certain things will then calm down, and the System operation will return to normal. “We’re the ones setting the limits, so it’s completely under our control, and we are not expecting any emergencies in principle. 

Have no fear and go on about your business as usual. “As the System is socially oriented, we will make paybacks to the poor and the economically disadvantaged in the first place: it means to the members with small PH amounts.

 “The richer can wait. Moreover, we’ve warned you repeatedly to only provide help with amounts that are not critical for you. Therefore, if these large amounts are not critical for them (the richer), they can wait a few days. No need to be tragic about it. 

“This is the way it’s going to be. I’d like again to call on the authorities and the mass media: Please, leave us alone! Have mercy on people.” During the break, MMM Nigeria introduced bitcoin, the world’s best performing currency, as a means of payment to those who invested in the scheme via a bitcoin wallet.
