Why would you want to hack someone’s Facebook account? Right off the top of my head, the first reason that comes to mind is jealousy. You want to hack your partner’s account to see if there’s something you should be worried about. Or, you want to hack your ex’s account and see what’s new, what changed since the two of you broke up.

Security company BullGuard asked the same question – and it came with a list of responses, which it nicely put together in the form of an infographic. Featured below, BullGuard’s infographic presents the main reasons why people hack Facebook accounts and it also presents several useful tips on how to keep your account safe.
