There are many websites that you can log into with your Facebook login. This can be quite convenient and convenient - but caution is advised. It is not uncommon for this website or app to want to like things on Facebook under its own name. It is even worse if they even want to post - that way you can become a spam spreader yourself.

Incidentally, the following instructions also work in the Facebook app. This is how it works: First log into Facebook and switch to the account settings. Here you can find all the plugins that are linked to your account under the point “logged in with Facebook”. Here it is shown for each app whether it can post on Facebook. If you discover a strange app, just click on it and remove it. This means that access to the Facebook account is revoked and the app can no longer post.

If you don't know which app is behind the actions, just go to the activitiesprolook great. Here you can see which app is posting or liking under your own name. The culprit has thus been identified and locked out. By the way, you can find the latest activities here in your own chronicle under "Activitiesprotocol".
