How to Recover a Hacked Facebook Account
Facebook has become a very popular social network at the moment. If your Facebook account is hacked, there are several ways to recover it.
Here are the methods you can use to recover a hacked Facebook account.
If your Facebook account is hacked, you need to reset the password first. For this you need to go to the Facebook website. Then 'Forgot password?' option must be selected. Enter the mobile number or email address provided while opening the account. Then select 'Reset Your Password' from the menu. Then you can log into Facebook using the new password.
But what happens if the hacker or hackers change the mobile number or email address given while opening the account after hacking the Facebook ID?
In that situation, the first thing to do is to inform Facebook about the ID being hacked. To do this go to https://www.facebook.com/hacked and select the 'my account is compromised' option. After that, the account needs to be correctly identified with username, mobile number or email address. Now enter captcha (special code) as 'Security Check' option and Facebook will ask you multiple security related questions including old password. If you answer the questions correctly and select the submit button, your complaint will be sent to Facebook.
Hackers often gain access to Facebook accounts and send lewd messages, photos or videos to friends or family members. Some hackers also try to con people by requesting money. Many may also spread unsolicited post spam. So don't forget to inform everyone that your account has been hacked before taking any action.
