If Facebook account is hacked, then there is a scary act of us. Because the account being hacked means that our personal information is gone to others. In the meantime, we need to take necessary steps on the cold head, without being restless. It needs to know some essential things-

How is the ID hacked?
Be sure to know if the ID has been hacked. In this case, following the symptoms, we understand that ID has been hacked-

  • Changing your email or password.
  • Changing your name or information.
  • Send friend requests to anyone without your knowledge.
  • Send a message to someone, which you did not write.
  • Post or share something which you did not.

How can i get hacked id?

Generally, your Facebook ID can be hacked in two ways. For example,

  1. Change password and
  2. By changing the e-mail address.

How Can I Restore Account On ID?

Suppose someone has forgotten your Facebook ID password and logs in to your account and changed your old password to set a new password. Now you can not login to Facebook with old password.

If you follow the steps below, you can get back the account. Just remember the old password.

  • The first thing to do is to enter this link- http://www.facebook.com/hacked. In this link, a page called Report Compromised Account will appear.
  • My Account is compromised Click on this button.
    To identify the account from Identify Your Account, click on the email or phone number or Facebook username or your name and a friend's name with the necessary information on any of these three options.
    If the information given is correct then it will be written - This is My Account. Now click on this is My Account.
    After clicking on it, the old password will be asked - Enter a Correct or Old Password.
  • You have to continue with the old password here. Then there will be a confirmation message. After that the next steps will be crossed.
  • A new password will be asked from the next step. If the next forms are filtered properly, the account will be returned to you from Facebook.

E-mail and Facebook ID password used in Facebook ID should be kept separate. Because hackers usually change Facebook e-mail addresses after hacking. And if you can change the e-mail address, it's hard to get back the hacked Facebook account. The e-mail address is the only way to recover a hacked account.

In this way it is expected that the hacked ID can be returned. If the two methods are not working, there are options to delete the account permanently.

How to delete the account if it is hacked?

  1. Click on the right corner of the account.
  2. Report / block to click.
  3. Click 'This is my old profile' and select 'close this account' from the options below. When properly reported, the Facebook authorities will review the profile and the account will be closed when it is actually proved to be the profile of the Reporter.
