Facebook port scanning and Tracking IP addresses of user.



Recently i got alert from my firewall that this IP 157.240.7.35 is scanning the ruuning services and port on your computer. I was surprised thinking who can scan my ports, I am not a IT guy or firm owner. So i managed to reverse look up for the IP address

And this is not the only one IP trace happened to my computer there are many of them, Google do scan and facebook and many more website to know the details about the host accessing the websites so that they have the record of user like what he is searching and show ads respectively.

I tried to contact facebook several times but its shown me the error that i can't report against any IP trace or anything

The following IP's are from the server of google and facebook who are scanning the ports.
Let me have confirmation why they are tracing it and update you guys.

IP details:-

157.240.7.35 Detected attack, host not blocked SINGLE_SCAN_PORT (18396)
