You're right Darling. It also happened to me. I forgot to sign out from my account in an internet cafe due to in hurry or something. Then that day, my friends called me complaining that they were receiving foul messages. My account wasn't totally hacked but for that day I looked like a bad person to the people I knew. So what I did, I explained what happened by sending a message to all my contacts.

 

Another point make sure while logging in with any of the browser its secured and trusted.
