If you are logged into Facebook, you page is active. Any attempt to change your password, will result in a dialogue box from Facebook for confirmation.

If you are NOT logged into Facebook, someone could hack your account while you're sleeping ... they will be the person getting the dialogue box.

As for the poster that said the original poster wasn't "hacked", but was "spoofed", that is incorrect. Unless I read the OP's post wrong, he couldn't access his own FB account ... that's being hacked, not spoofed.

Spoofing is when someone creates a seemingly duplicate profile and account. They don't need your password for that.
