Subject: Appeal to Recover Instagram Linked Facebook Account
To the Facebook Team,
I would like to bring to your attention that my personal Facebook account, linked to my Instagram account, has been disabled. Regrettably, I have encountered some issues leading to the lockdown of my Facebook account. I adhere to the Facebook Community Guidelines and have stored essential personal information in my account, which I cannot afford to lose. My account serves as a confirmation of my identity. I have submitted the required documents for review in the appeal process. Your prompt assistance in resolving this matter would be greatly appreciated.

My account has been compromised by someone who added their email to it. I noticed this when attempting to recover my account as Facebook displayed two email addresses for sending the code, one of which I don't recognize. The hacker enabled two-step authorization with a code generator, locking me out of my account on all devices. I am eager to regain access to retrieve my photos and ensure my information is secure, especially after experiencing credit card fraud following the hack.

Hello! I'm experiencing difficulties with my advertising account. Facebook has reactivated an old ad campaign without my intervention. I failed to notice the notifications initially and have been charged for ads that I did not activate. Additionally, there is now a debt that I need to settle. I am unable to unlink my card or deactivate the ad account. How can I clear the debt and deactivate the account? I have decided not to use Facebook in the future due to what feels like theft and deception.
Translations if you're Russian:
Привет! У меня проблемы с моим рекламным аккаунтом. Фейсбук перезапустил старую рекламную кампанию без моего участия. Я не заметила уведомления изначально, и мне взимают оплату за рекламу, которую я не запускала. Кроме того, появился долг, который мне нужно погасить. Я не могу отвязать мою карту или отключить аккаунт. Как мне погасить долг и деактивировать аккаунт? Я решила больше не пользоваться Facebook из-за ощущения воровства и обмана.

My email, [redacted], seems to have been hacked. I changed my password, and then all my emails disappeared. When I tried to log in 20 minutes later, it said the password was changed 5 minutes ago, but it wasn't me. I can't access my account now. Please help me reset the password and secure my email. The new email address associated with my account starts with an "a". I don't recognize it, and all my emails are gone. I can't send a verification code to the hacker. I need to reset my password, but I can't do it without knowing the current password to change it. Please assist me before any more damage is done, as my Google Pay and all my cards are linked to this account. Thank you for your prompt help.

I am experiencing difficulties regaining access to my Facebook account since I cannot remember the password, my old mobile number is invalid, and the two-step verification is failing. Unfortunately, the mobile linked to the verification process is no longer in use due to a mishap. Despite my attempt to verify my identity using my driver's license, I was informed about a backlog in processing such requests due to the ongoing pandemic. Consequently, I have been waiting for assistance since October [redacted]. The email associated with the account is still accessible, but the outdated mobile number poses a problem. It is urgent that I regain access to my account to address concerning family issues resulting from certain posts that need to be rectified. Additionally, there are unwanted followers on my account who I do not know and did not approve, causing distress within my family and with my husband. I seek urgent assistance to remedy this situation promptly. Your prompt attention to this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
C.

Hello Facebook team, I believe my account was mistakenly disabled as I have not violated any rules. I uploaded my own photo and not using anyone's identity, yet I am unable to log in now. This account is old and important to me, containing family photos and documents. Please review this information and enable my account promptly. Thank you.

Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to inform you that my Instagram account was hacked and subsequently banned due to a suspicious login attempt. Despite reviewing Instagram's terms of service, I confirmed that no violations were made.
On July 27th, upon opening the app, I received a notification that someone from an unfamiliar location was attempting to access my account. I followed the verification process by entering a code sent to my phone number. However, after waiting for 24 hours for my account to be reviewed, I found that it was disabled for alleged terms violations, which I did not commit.
My Instagram account is crucial to my business, as I have already printed my username on [redacted] business cards. Despite reaching out to Instagram without any response, I implore you to assist me in recovering my account.
Your prompt assistance in resolving this matter would be greatly appreciated. Kindly restore access to my account.
Yours faithfully,
Karly

Dear Support Team,
I am reaching out for assistance regarding my hacked Instagram account. On 27/7, I received a notification about a suspicious login attempt from an unknown location and followed the verification steps. However, after waiting for the review period, I found that my account was disabled for alleged violations of the terms, which upon review, I did not breach. This is troubling as my Instagram account is crucial for my business, as I have already distributed business cards with my handle, @karlytse_.
Despite my efforts to contact Instagram through various channels, I have not received any help. I implore you to assist me in recovering my account as soon as possible. Your prompt attention to this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
Karly

I recently had my Instagram account, formerly known as _caramelx, hacked. I got logged out and couldn't log back in as it seems the email was changed. I discovered my account was altered to _63caramelxx and someone posted about getting money through Cash App. I commented on the post, thanking them for a displayed amount. It seems those accounts are hacked too. I took a screenshot but now it says "user not found." I'm unsure if they temporarily deactivated or changed my username. I really want my old account back. Please help.

Hello,
I recently tried to adjust the privacy settings on my birth year on Facebook, but due to my limited tech skills, it accidentally displayed my age as one year old, resulting in my account being suspended for being too young to use the platform. This amusing situation has become inconvenient as I can't access messages regarding my upcoming party. I provided my driver's license to prove my correct age. I would appreciate it if a person from Facebook could assist in restoring my account promptly. Thank you.
Best,

Hello, I have recently discovered that an old deactivated account of mine has been reopened without my consent, making all my private information and photos publicly visible. The same issue has happened with my boyfriend's account, where personal photos set to private are now viewable by everyone. This privacy breach has resulted in unwanted attention, stalking, and even break-ins at my home. Despite numerous attempts to report and delete these photos, Facebook has been unresponsive. I am in a dangerous situation, and Facebook's lack of assistance is concerning. I urge for a prompt and professional resolution to this matter. Thank you. - Jonelle Gallaway

Hello,
I need help as my Instagram account, bigpamtheory, was mistakenly disabled. I am Pamela Dorothy Castro, a working student from the Philippines, and I rely on this account for important transactions. I have followed all the community guidelines and terms of service of Instagram and did not violate any rules. However, upon trying to log in, it states that my account was disabled due to a violation. I have already responded to multiple emails with verification codes, providing a photo of myself with the code, my name, and Instagram username as requested. I am distressed about losing years of work and vital information on that account. Being the primary provider for my family, I am unsure how to proceed. Your prompt assistance in resolving this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Dear Facebook Support Team,
I abide by the community guidelines on Facebook. As an adult user, I provided my government ID to verify my age as [redacted] years old. Recently, my account was hacked, but I managed to recover it. However, upon trying to log in again, I discovered that my account was locked by Facebook. I believe this may be due to a misunderstanding regarding my age. Please review my ID to confirm that I am an adult user. I kindly ask for your assistance in resolving this issue.
