  1. Are you asking us for help to recover your Facebook account? Or are you asking us for help in recovering your Hotmail account which happens to have been also hacked along with your Facebook account?

answer: I want your help in recovering my facebook account, the hacker is the one who changes the email i dont even know that email address or did make it.

  1. Is the Hotmail account you provided above the recovery e-mail being registered by the hacker on your Facebook account which thus prevents you from accessing that account?

answer: yes the email that i provided is the hackers email address. I live in ph so its only natural that the language should be english when you try to recover your facebook but then it change into vietnam language. so i cant retrieve it.

  1. If you're trying to recover your Hotmail or your Facebook account, what message are you getting? A screenshot would really be helpful if you get an error message on an error code.

answer:

the first one is when i try to retrieve it. but then facebook reply that it was "sorted out" but its not.

the second time i try to send another valid ID so i can retrieve it, but then, look what facebook reply to me, so this is where i think that the hacker is from vietnam.

please help me your my only hope in retrieving my facebook account. and im doing this so your company wont be used for hacking pursposes.

Hi samswalker,

Thanks for the additional information you've provided us. Unfortunately, we cannot help you with this uncomfortable situation you find your self in because of two very important reasons:

  1. From the screenshots and the answers you've provided you are indeed trying to recover your Facebook account.  Now Facebook is not exactly a Microsoft product and we here do not have the tools nor the training to be able to assist you with this issue.  However, you may want to actually visit Facebook's Help Center page and follow this guide which details what to do if you have a hacked FB account:I think my Facebook Page was hacked or taken over by someone else.
  2. As for the hacker's Hotmail account that was registered as the recovery e-mail in your FB account, I noticed you sent me a private message that more or less asked if we can deactivate that account or give you access to the hacker's Hotmail account to close it.  I'm sorry to say this though but we cannot do that for you regardless of any proof you can present. You can actually close Hotmail accounts provided that you own them and have access to them but you cannot close Hotmail accounts of other people.

Respectfully,

Glenn Rue

Sorry, but this is a Facebook problem. Not an outlook problem.

Microsoft cannot help you with this.

Here are Facebook Help center links that may help.

    As the post above said, the hackers used a Hotmail account by hacking a Facebook (I'm not fluent in English so bear with me.)

    Luckily, I haven't experienced this kinda situation but unfortunately my friends had. And by any means, It's hard to possibly retrieve an account when they are only a normal user not an expert so they can't just retrieve the said hacked account.

    I dunno if this will help you but I've found a post/link that may help you in retrieving the accounts.

    https://hacked.com/how-to-recover-a-hacked-facebook-account 

    Just click that link and hope that it may help recovering your accounts.

    May God bless you'll

    This happened to me today, July 5, 2021. How were you able to change the email and password so that you can login? I have been unable to do this. I have been able to post a message to my friends because the account is still linked to my Instagram page. For some reason, I can still post to the page from IG.

    Glenn,

    You in essence are giving a hackers an impetus to use hotmail as their preferred hacking tool.  

    Like the OP my FB was hacked, a hotmail address was used to gain access, they deleted my email address which had been used from day one to create my FB account. They also deleted my phone number from the account.  

    You should allow a MS member to contest the use of a hackers email account not connected to them .  I uploaded my DL and 15 supporting documents showing that I was the originator of the FB profile in 2009.  FB has done nothing except send a few emails saying they are sorry that their hands are tied because of the use of an alternate email!  If only MS and FB would protect authentic identities and go after hackers !  At least Youtube allows you to report a channel.  We can't report hostile email accounts.

    You said 'Let's put it a different way, if a total stranger where to ask us to give him or her access to your Hotmail account so that he or she can remove it from your Facebook account as a recovery email you won't exactly appreciate if we did that for the stranger.  That is exactly what happened! A total stranger gained access to our accounts. That total stranger is now being protected by Microsoft! You said "The point I'm making here is that we don't actually entertain such requests." But Glenn YOU DO!!!!!! You just allowed a stranger with a hotmail account to hack an account and now you're protecting them claiming it's for our own good! But you CAN trace an email account to the actual hack! By taking no action you're complicit!
