Facebook Is Testing Unauthorized Access Notifications

Facebook appears to be testing notifications about possible unauthorized attempts to access accounts.

Alerts that online accounts may have been accessed without authorization are common via email and also as warning popup right after you log on, but via Facebook notifications? That’s a new one.

Readers: Have any of you received similar notifications?
