It's sorry to say but you just never know what people are capable of, especially if they are feeling as though they have been screwed.
Don't reuse passwords: You should never the same password for multiple sites. Reusing a password repeatedly increases the likelihood that someone else will be able to steal passwords.

Use complex passwords: If you are not using a password generator then use passwords that are a combination of letters (upper and lowercase), numbers and symbols.

Upon successful log in you receive a text message notifying you of the log in. The text message includes instructions on what to do if it was not you that logged in.
Turn on Login Approvals: You can also set Facebook up to require approval of a log in. When someone (hopefully you) attempts to log in a text message with a verification code is sent to you. The person attempting to log in has to enter the verification code in order to continue.
Check to see active sessions: Check the active sessions for activity that looks suspicious. If you take a look and notice log ins from countries other than the one you live in your account has been compromised and you should change your password immediately. Be careful though. If you use Facebook mobile the activity may not show up locally because the IP address is not provided by your ISP.
