If you have a similar customer service issue, this page will help you find current, up-to-date answers and solutions.
My Facebook account was hacked, and someone posted a comment that resulted in a 30-day ban. I did not post that comment; it was done intentionally by someone to get me banned. They also stole information; however, I am unsure of the extent. I only saw some pictures posted on Twitter. The comment appeared on September 27th at 08:40 AM. I want to understand how this happened because it doesn't show in my history log, and I am unaware of where the comment was posted. Dealing with the aftermath was difficult as the hacker changed my passwords, and I couldn't access the email to reset them as it wasn't sent to my Gmail. I wish to report this to Facebook, but I can't find a way to do it. There doesn't seem to be an option to report such incidents. I am not certain if Facebook can investigate, but I have also informed the police.

I fell victim to a scam on Facebook where my funds were stolen. Once I realized it was a scam, I tried to take action, but now the scammers have taken over my Facebook account. They've linked another email to it, preventing me from accessing my account. They've demanded more money through WhatsApp and are blackmailing me. They even messaged my mom pretending to be me. I need help to remove the linked email, regain access to my account, secure it, and block the scammers. I've provided identification, but I can't change my password because of the linked email. The police and fraud team are involved, and I'm desperate to get my social media back.

Dear Sir,
I regret to inform you that my account has been disabled. I apologize for not adhering to your guidelines, resulting in the account being disabled. I kindly request you to reopen my account. I am extremely grateful to the Facebook team for reactivating my disabled account. However, I am as saddened as I am happy because since the account was reopened, my access to the Facebook Marketplace, where I conduct my buying and selling business, has been restricted. This is essential to my business, and I urge for immediate assistance in reopening it. Please, Facebook teams, I urge you to help me promptly so I can resume my buying and selling activities and provide you with positive feedback. I want to inform my friends about the excellent service provided by Get Human, a website that easily resolves our issues. Please, Facebook team, I implore you to assist me urgently.

Dear Facebook expert, I have encountered an unusual issue on my Redwood National and State Parks (NPS) FB group page. When posting a photo and comment, they disappear as soon as I leave the page, only happening with new conversations but not when commenting on others' posts or on my own FB page or another group. I enjoy sharing my landscape photography on FB for feedback, unlike in museums. Your help is appreciated. Regards, Tom Brody, Ph.D., Alameda.

I recently sold a NEW KIDS EMBRACE COMBINATION TODDLER HARNESS BOOSTER CAR SEAT on Facebook Marketplace, but I have not received payment even though the item was shipped and received by the buyer, Katie R. She paid for the order #[redacted][redacted] on September 10, [redacted]. UPS tracking number 1Z K81 TY1 03 2[redacted] shows that she received the item on September 14, [redacted]. It seems Facebook canceled the order and hasn't refunded her or paid me the $[redacted] for the sale. Despite emails suggesting I can relist the item, Katie has the seat, and I have not been compensated. I am frustrated with this situation as a seller and hope for a resolution promptly. Thank you.

Hello,
I am reaching out because my brother, Eugene, downloaded a Facebook Cyber Police badge. He believes this badge gives him special abilities, including the power to remove people from Facebook by talking into the search bar with a microphone. Despite my knowledge of Facebook using AI technology, Eugene insists this badge grants him unique privileges. He mentions interactions with Johan the Bot in the past, further solidifying his belief.
He continues to act as the "Facebook Cyber Police" and claims to have exclusive powers. I am concerned about his behavior and would like clarification on whether the badge truly provides him with such capabilities. Your assistance in clarifying this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Rebecca Sarver

I was signed out of my Facebook account after trying to access it from an unfamiliar device. I've relocated to the UK and changed my phone number, which is causing trouble with the authentication process. I am unable to receive the code it's asking for. Despite my efforts over the months, including submitting my passport and driving licence multiple times, I have not been successful in regaining access. The emotional toll of this experience has been overwhelming as I strive to reconnect with my life post-isolation due to Covid. I am reaching out here as a last resort. I am willing to provide any necessary information to recover my account. Thank you for your assistance.

My Facebook account, Robert L., linked to my scuba business, has been disabled. I am unable to receive SMS verification codes to regain access. When I try to log in on my computer, a message stating "Account Temporarily Unavailable" is displayed. Clicking "Try again" does not work. Another message mentions a 3-day restriction on posting or using Messenger due to a past violation related to Community Standards on Nudity or sexual activity. My customers rely on this account to stay connected with my business. I urgently need assistance before my account is permanently disabled.

A friend's page was hacked, and the hacker contacted me pretending to be my friend, asking for help. They claimed to have a new phone and needed a code sent to my phone, which I forwarded to them. When I realized what happened, I tried to access my Facebook account, but the password and email had been changed by the hacker. After Facebook blocked my account for suspicious activity, I went through the unblocking steps. However, I couldn't remove all unfamiliar phone numbers and emails because it required at least one. The hacker had already removed my phone number and email. I need to know how to add my email back so I can remove the unknown email and phone number. I have sentimental photos and videos on my page. Please advise.

Hello,
On Tuesday, September 28, [redacted], at 19:40, my Instagram account was hacked. The hacker altered my login credentials, changed my username slightly to svetlanadikayaaa_, and updated the associated email and phone number. They then posted a story claiming my mother had an accident and requested money to be sent to a provided card number. My friends alerted me to the hack, and I was locked out of my account. I need assistance in recovering access to my page and preventing unauthorized access.
The email and phone number associated with my Instagram account are [redacted] and +[redacted]0, respectively. My original username was Svetlanadikayaaa. I’ve had this account since Instagram's inception and it contains personal photos, videos, and conversations that are extremely valuable to me. I kindly request your help in restoring my access and securing the account from further intrusion. I am ready to provide any necessary proof to verify my identity. Thank you for your help in restoring my precious memories.

I am seeking assistance to recover my hacked account which has had the email and phone number changed by the hacker. The individual who has taken control of my account is demanding payment for its return. I have evidence in the form of pictures to support my claim. It is essential for me to regain access to my account as this imposter is deceiving my friends and family on Facebook and extorting money from them. Despite my attempts to have the issue reported, no action has been taken thus far. The situation has escalated to the point where a school friend asked about a transaction involving a dog that I never sold, and an unknown individual came to my residence. The fear of potential harm drives my urgency to resolve this matter promptly. Your intervention to restore my account access is greatly appreciated.

I am experiencing an issue with my account. It has been locked due to suspicious activity/unauthorized login since August 3, [redacted]. After submitting my government-issued ID, I was supposed to receive further details within 24 hours to unlock my account, but I have not received any emails from Facebook Support yet. I tried reuploading my ID multiple times, but still, nothing happened. As it is now October 1st, my account is still locked. The help center did not provide any useful information. I suspect there may be an error in the system, and I am unsure if the support team received my ID. I would appreciate assistance with this matter.

I recently had my email account compromised, leading to unauthorized access to my Facebook account. Since September 29th, [redacted], an account under the name Jannine Monika has been using my email address to log in to Facebook. Despite numerous attempts to reset the password, I am unable to regain access as all notifications are being sent to the imposter's email address, which I do not recognize (likely something with "hotmail"). My correct email address is [redacted] At this point, I am unable to reset the login information or verify my identity since all communications are being intercepted by the unauthorized account. I want to clarify that I am the rightful owner of the account and have been using it for over a decade. I am reaching out for assistance in resolving this matter promptly. Thank you for your help.

I am seeking assistance regarding a cuckoo clock I purchased on a marketplace platform. The clock arrived with a chain detached, which operates the device, due to inadequate packaging. The seller denies responsibility, claiming it was fine when shipped. I've requested a return, but the seller seems to have blocked me. I am unable to access our previous messages or initiate the return process. As the clock is in need of repair, I am reaching out for help as I do not wish to incur further expenses. Your assistance in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Dear server creators,
I am experiencing difficulty with my Messenger account. My daughter installed Messenger without creating a Facebook page, and now she can't recall the password. I have a separate account linked to Facebook, and after creating it, I lost access to Messenger. Despite numerous attempts, the verification code did not reach my phone. To my frustration, the new account I used doesn't sync contacts from my phone, only suggesting Facebook friends. I am perplexed by the functionality. How can I resolve this issue and regain access to my original Messenger account that requires Facebook registration? Your help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Irina V.

Hello Instagram Team,
I want to report that my Facebook account was deactivated on August 27, [redacted], around 5:10 PM IST. During this time, I was not using my account due to it being hacked.

My intention is never to cause harm, and I have not shared my Instagram password or clicked on any suspicious links. I assure you that I will take measures to prevent such errors in the future.

On August 13th, [redacted], my Facebook account got hacked due to falling for a scam. The scam involved receiving money, resulting in me sharing my FB details, which I now regret. I am unable to access my account; my name is Lucy LU, and the associated email is [redacted], which I can no longer access. Since the hacker changed the password and is using my account to scam my loved ones, I would like it to be deleted, as I am unable to do it myself.

Good afternoon, my name is David Fontecha. I am reaching out to request verification regarding the origin, device, and individuals responsible for the posts leading to my account being blocked. These actions are restricting me from sharing content without causing harm or infringing upon anyone's integrity. Social networks play a significant role in my life, especially for sharing music videos and promoting my personal projects. I am dedicated to showcasing my own written songs and lyrics without causing any harm. I am willing to cooperate with any investigation to prove my innocence and maintain my positive reputation. Your assistance in resolving this matter is greatly appreciated as I strive to uphold my standing as a respectable individual and aspiring entrepreneur in the music industry.
