Right now so many people cant get access to their Facebook account because of some technical issues, and even if it comes up many account will be loss. The reason am bringing this up for discussion is because some of us we think the social media and email are the best place to store important details. Some people consider online as a good place of store for wallet seedphrase. Anything can happen to the server of this social media where information are store and account might get lose which it will be so difficult to get the important information stored on it.

I am not an active user of Facebook but I saw on X some few hours ago where users of that app were finding it difficult to access their accounts and were unable due to technical issues.

Some of the comments pointed to a more excalating presumptions that make them say that the accounts where already hacked, any ways storing important informations online is a bad approach regardless of how secured the sp called cyber claims to be and for such it risky to keep anything related to wallet security on third-party cyber like face or even Google and other online storage.

You can see how those online storage so called cloud made some people to lose money after hackers were able to have access to their seed phrase. But as for someone that does so on social media, that is stupidity.

Taking my seed phrase to a social media chat is the biggest and most foolish decision I would have ever made in my financial life because I see that as equal to selling myself out and shooting myself on my foot. For the fact that I will never take a step of storing my seed phrase in an online platform whether centralized or decentralized, posting on a social media platform whether as a private chat or private post, it doesn't matter because it have already automatically stored your information.

This is the internet, and it's very wild, so whatever your doing, people that can be criminally minded, that would want to access or find ways to access information's that are very private to you are always at alert.
Saving your seed phrase on the mail or within the internet space is too dangerous. Important documents or details of an individual should be printed in hard copy and kept in a very private and secure area, not on the internet. At first when I noticed that I couldn't log into my Facebook account, I felt my Facebook account was hacked because what is rampant nowadays, it was later I found out they had network glitch.

Anybody who has been in this forum for a while now at least should have known that this is a very risky approach of dealing with your holdings. Of a truth, I'm even against storing your see phase plainly without some level of encryption, word extension or customization even when stored offline, talkless of going online for backup.

Funny as it may sound, I do the encryption myself with a local server and print it out in booklets and store the encryption of my seed phrases and the secret key at different places in a manner that the person that intercepts them will treat it as clearly unimportant.

Online isn't to be trusted with your seeds, third party interference and loss of backup data is very high, you only need to trust yourself alone in securing your seeds and private keys , offline is the best approach.

Thank you for dis important advice, di Facebook matter na real eye opener for anybody wey de carry all dem sensitive information de save for social media, if dis kind thing fit to happen to Facebook wey follow for tech giants, den e show say any site go fit to shutdown or hacked at anytime. No be only to store sensitive information, make we no also de click any unfamiliar links, unless we don verify say na legit im b, because hackers and scammers no get joy for dem mind. I de happy say Bitcoin no de for dat category, aldo na digital im be, but di developers stand gidigba like Aso rock, to protect investors funds and, God, no go let hackers to know dem secrets.

I just wan open my facebook, I see say e don automatically log me out, my body just weak self because it has been long I created the account, and since I login for my phone, I never log out again, I can’t even remember the password to the account, and like say I don even lost sim wey I use open the facebook account, so if the technical problem have been resolved, then I will start trying out random password, but the chances of me getting the facebook account back is low.

Plenty people dey make that mistake, I no go lie u me self don make that mistake before, but as I come see say na rubbish, I come delete am for the gmail wey I save am. The worst place to store your seed phrase is online, any of your account can easily be compromised, and people go get access to that your seed phrase. Anything wey you store online, make you know say e no dey private again.
