Facebook account hacked

A

AC Question

Recently a friend inboxed us through Facebook messenger with a link asking me if that was me if that was me in the video. I press the link then it asked me for my password which I did. When i opened it, it had pornograhic pictures of ladies. My facebook friend apologised and said it was a spam. I didn't make any changes after that to my Facebook account such as change my password on my Facebook account. This morning i received a message from my facebook messanger friend that in his suggested contacts that i was going to laos in my country at a high school reunion which wasnt true. I asked him no thats not the case. I then asked him to screen shot the image of what he received and then he said that its gone which is very bizarre. I have a samsung s7 android phone.
What do I do to investigate?
Do I reset my password on my Google or Facebook account. Do i check my ip address? Do i go in my security settings in my mobile and delete any malware.

Change all passwords on all accounts! Everything. Scan device with malwarebytes or similar. Never, ever open any link if you don't know what it is. Even from friends. If you are not sure, contact your friend and confirm they sent you that link fitst! And NEVER give your password to anyone. Ever. Never. Got it?
