Yes, but I don't think, you have to report upsetting, when you see it from others. That's not my problem.

I think if a hacker wants to attack on your Facebook account, it will be useless to do that stuff. Nonetheless, to be safer, you should follow those things. Moreover, you had better provide your sufficient info when registering an account, or you can use "Profile picture guard" function of FB to protect your account better.. Thank you.
