Is your Facebook account save? This question has haunted many in the near past and now has been triggered once again when Mark Zuckerberg Facebook fan page got hacked. This happen exactly after French President Nicolas Sarkozy's Facebook account also was hacked.

Mark Zuckerberg's Fan page got hacked and the hacker on his profile advocated Facebook to adopt "social business". It further read that profits for this business will invest in charitable causes. Further the message read, “Let the hacking begin: If Facebook needs money, instead of going to the banks, why doesn"t Facebook let its users invest in Facebook in a social way? Why not transform Facebook into a 'social business" the way Nobel Prize winner Muhammad Yunus described it? [LINK] What do you think? #hackercup2011″

After Mark Zuckerberg's fan page was hacked, there is no official comment from the representatives and neither from the man himself. Though there are several who are trying to hide the fact by saying that the account was not hacked, it was Mark himself. This does not seem to be true though as immediately after the incident of Mark Zuckerberg's hacked account, his profile for removed and the incident was tried to be hushed. But for people as famous as him, it was very difficult.

By the time Mark Zuckerberg's fan page was deleted it had already got 1800 likes and hundreds of comments. One of the messages read, Facebook made no statement about the incident, but if Zuckerberg"s fan page was indeed hacked, it"s a big deal. If the Facebook CEO (more accurately, the PR team that"s handling the page for him) can"t keep his Facebook account safe from intruders, who can?

After Mark Zuckerberg's fan page got hacked, it sowed the seed of doubt in one of the most perfect social networking site but the bigger question is, does Mark Zukherberg have a bigger competitor in making?
