My Facebook was hacked, and the email address was changed to s*****************@hotmail.com and my original two email addresses were deleted from the Profil. How can you help me to log in again, or find out the email address that’s being used for MY Facebook account, so that I can gain it back or take legal actions against the hacker???

Hi, so getting my account back wasn’t that easy. I had to send in my ID twice, to verify it’s me. Trying to log in from a browser that I had precise used helped. While it took some time for them to actually send me a verification code, the hacker put down a second email address. I was able to remove them once I got access again.

I went to the forgot my password page when logging in and clicked no longer have access to these, then I was asked for my ID & I believe to describe the reason for verification. It took like 4 or 5 days to get back into it the account and set up two factor verification, but the sending in my ID & proving it’s me was the way to go, as there’s no direct way of contacting Facebook with this issue.

    Marco, where on your profile do we look? I can't find the email when I click on your profile and have no idea what I'm doing. All these messages are like a glimmer of unreachable help.

    Hello,

    Sorry about that R, You can write to *** Email address is removed for privacy ***

    I hope Don doesn't take this message as a rule violation.

    The address was automatically removed. But I am locking this thread. Paying someone to recover a Facebook account is not an appropriate topic here.
