Facebook account hacked email changed

That's frustrating! Don't worry, I'm here to help you recover your Facebook account and change the email address back to your original one. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you through the process:

Step 1: Report the issue to Facebook

  1. Go to Facebook's Help Center (www.facebook.com/help) and click on "Report a Compromised Account" at the top of the page.
  2. Fill out the form with your account information, including the email address that was changed.
  3. Explain the situation in the "What happened?" field, stating that your account was hacked and the email address was changed.

Step 2: Verify your identity

  1. Facebook will ask you to verify your identity to ensure you're the actual account owner. You can do this by:
    • Using your phone number or email address associated with your account (if you have one).
    • Providing a government-issued ID (e.g., driver's license, passport).
    • Answering security questions (if you've set them up).

Step 3: Change the email address back

  1. Once you've verified your identity, you'll be able to change the email address associated with your account.
  2. Go to your Facebook account settings (click on the downward arrow in the top right corner, then select "Settings").
  3. Click on "Account Settings" (not "General Account Settings").
  4. Scroll down to the "Contact and Basic Info" section.
  5. Click on "Edit" next to "Email" and enter your original email address.
  6. Click "Save Changes" to update the email address.

Step 4: Secure your account

  1. To prevent future hacking attempts, make sure to:
    • Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on your account. This adds an extra layer of security by requiring a verification code sent to your phone or authenticator app in addition to your password.
    • Use a strong and unique password for your Facebook account.
    • Keep your account information up to date, including your email address and phone number.
