What if someone hacked my Facebook
1(866) 825-1531
and changed my email and password and phone number? Quick Answer. The first step to recovering from a Facebook hack is to
1(866) 825-1531
check whether you can still access your account yourself.
Losing access to your Facebook account because a hacker
1(866) 825-1531
has changed your email, phone number, and password can be a stressful experience. However, Facebook provides
1(866) 825-1531
tools to help you regain control. Here’s a step-by-step guide on what to
1(866) 825-1531
do if your account has been compromised in this way.
1. Use the “No Longer Have Access to These?” Option
If the hacker has altered your login credentials
1(866) 825-1531
, start by using Facebook’s
Account Recovery Tool
.
Go to the
Account Recovery Page
and select
1(866) 825-1531
My Account Is Compromised.
Enter your username, name, or any previous
1(866) 825-1531
login credentials to locate your account.
When prompted, select
No longer have access
1(866) 825-1531 to these?
Provide a new email address or phone number that
1(866) 825-1531
Facebook can use to contact you.
This step allows Facebook to send recovery instructions to a
1(866) 825-1531
secure contact method that hasn’t been compromised.
2. Verify Your Identity
To prove ownership of the account, Facebook
1(866) 825-1531
may require identity verification.
Upload a Government-Issued ID:
Submit a clear photo of your
1(866) 825-1531
passport, driver’s license, or other official identification.
Answer Security Questions:
Facebook may ask you to
1(866) 825-1531
confirm details such as previous passwords, recent activity, or friends' names.
Once your identity is verified, Facebook will assist
1(866) 825-1531
you in regaining control of your account.
3. Report the Hacked Account
If you cannot recover your account through the above methods
1(866) 825-1531
, report it directly to Facebook.
Visit the
Hacked Account Report
1(866) 825-1531
Form
.
Fill out the form with details about the
1(866) 825-1531
unauthorized changes.
Submit the form and wait for Facebook
1(866) 825-1531
to investigate.
Facebook will reach out to you via the contact information you provide to guide
1(866) 825-1531
you through the recovery process.
4. Inform Trusted Contacts
If you’ve previously set up Trusted Contacts
1(866) 825-1531
, they can assist in your recovery.
Go to
facebook.com/recover
.
Follow the prompts to request recovery codes
1(866) 825-1531
from your Trusted Contacts.
Use these codes to verify your identity and regain
1(866) 825-1531
access to your account.
5. Secure Your Account After Recovery
Once you regain control, take the following steps to
1(866) 825-1531
secure your account:
Change Your Password:
Create a strong,
1(866) 825-1531
unique password.
Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA):
Require a secondary
1(866) 825-1531
login step, such as a code sent to your phone or authentication app.
Update Your Recovery Information:
Ensure your email, phone
1(866) 825-1531
number, and other recovery options are up-to-date.
Review Recent Activity:
Check for unauthorized logins
1(866) 825-1531
, posts, or changes, and undo any suspicious activity.
6. Warn Your Contacts
Hackers often misuse compromised accounts to
1(866) 825-1531
send spam or phishing messages. Inform your Facebook friends that your account was hacked and advise them to avoid
1(866) 825-1531
interacting with any suspicious links or messages
1(866) 825-1531
sent during the hack.
Conclusion !!
If a hacker changes your email, phone number
1(866) 825-1531
, and password, it’s crucial to act quickly. Facebook’s recovery tools, identity verification, and Trusted Contacts provide effective
1(866) 825-1531
ways to regain control of your account. Once recovered, take proactive
1(866) 825-1531
measures to enhance your account security and prevent future
1(866) 825-1531
breaches.
