Losing your Facebook account to a hacker is frustrating, but here’s the good news: with the right steps, you can recover it—100% guaranteed! This guide walks you through every method to reclaim your hacked account, including a powerful option using Meta Verified and Pro Support. It’s easy to follow, so let’s get started and take your account back!
First Things First
Before diving in, act quickly and stay ready:
- Don’t panic: Calm, fast action is key.
- Check for Clues: Look in your email for Facebook notifications (e.g., “Your password was changed”).
- Know Your Account: Have your old username, email, or phone number on hand.
Let’s explore the best ways to recover your account—starting with verification for extra help!
Step 1: Get Verified with Meta Verified (Paid Option)
The blue tick on Facebook shows your account is authentic, and with Meta Verified, you get priority access to Pro Support—no fame required! This paid subscription is available for individuals and makes recovery smoother.
How to Subscribe:
- Open Facebook: Log into your account (or a new one if your original is hacked) on the mobile app.
- Go to Your Profile: Tap the three-line menu (top-right or bottom-right, depending on your device), then tap your name.
- Find Meta Verified: Scroll down, tap “Settings & privacy,” then “Settings,” and look for “Meta Verified.” (If it says “Join the waitlist,” it’s not available in your area yet.)
- Tap “Subscribe.”
- Pay the fee ($11.99-$14.99/month, depending on iOS or Android).
- Verify Identity:
- Upload a government-issued ID (e.g., passport, driver’s license).
- Record a short selfie video (Meta uses facial recognition to confirm it’s you).
- Wait: Approval takes about 48 hours—your blue tick appears once confirmed!
Requirements:
- Be 18+.
- Profile (public or private) with your full name and a face photo.
- Some prior activity (e.g., posts or interactions).
- Enable two-factor authentication (2FA).
- Valid ID matching your profile name/photo.
Benefits:
- Blue tick, impersonation protection, and direct human support from Meta.
- No need to be a public figure—just pay and verify!
Watch Out:
- Scams: Only use Meta Verified—don’t trust third-party “verification” offers.
- Rules: Breaking Community Standards (e.g., spamming) risks losing your badge.
Step 2: Contact Meta Pro Support
With your blue tick (especially via Meta Verified), you can reach Meta’s Pro Support team for fast, priority help with your hacked account.
How to Contact Them:
- Log in with your verified account (the one with the blue tick).
- Tap the three-line menu, then your name.
- Tap “Settings & privacy,” then “Settings.”
- Find Meta Verified Support:
- Scroll to “Tools and support” or “Meta Verified.”
- Tap “Meta Verified,” then “Get support” or “Contact support.” (If not visible, try the next option.)
- Alternative: Accounts Center:
- In “Settings,” tap “See more in Accounts Center.”
- Under “Meta Verified,” select “Support” or “Get help” (options like live chat, email, or a form may appear).
- Visit facebook.com/help in a browser.
- Log in with your verified account, click “Report a Problem” > “Something Went Wrong” > “Account Access,” and submit details. Verified users get quicker responses.
- Meta Verified users may access live chat via “Get support”—it connects you to a real person fast, often within minutes.
Step 3: Tell Them About Your Hacked Account
When you reach Pro Support, explain the hack clearly and provide proof of ownership.
What to Say:
- Your Status: “I’m a Meta Verified user, and my original Facebook account was hacked.”
- Original profile name or URL (e.g., “facebook.com/myrealname”).
- Date of hack (e.g., “February 15, 2025”).
- Hacker’s changes (e.g., “They changed my email, phone, and password”).
- Current state (e.g., “I can’t log in; my name is now ‘Hacker Name’”).
- Proof: “I can provide my ID, original email (myemail@example.com), and screenshots of old posts or login attempts.”
- Request: “Please help me recover my account or disable it to stop misuse.”
Example Message:
“Hi, I’m a Meta Verified user. My account, facebook.com/myrealname, was hacked on Feb 15, 2025. The hacker changed my email, phone, and password, and I can’t log in. My name is now ‘Hacker Name.’ I can send my ID, original email (myemail@example.com), and screenshots of my posts to prove it’s mine. Please help me recover it!”
Step 4: Recover Your Account with Pro Support
After reporting, Meta Pro Support will assist you in regaining access. Here’s the process:
- They’ll request a photo of your ID or a selfie with a code they provide.
- If your profile had your face, a video selfie (turning your head) might be needed.
- They’ll check your details (old email, phone, profile history) with priority—often resolved in hours or days for verified users.
- If ownership is confirmed, they’ll:
- Send a reset link to a new email/phone you specify.
- Or manually restore access with a temporary login code.
- Log in and reset your password immediately
- They’ll unlink the hacker’s email/phone and remove unauthorized devices (Settings > Security and Login).
- If recovery fails (e.g., account disabled), they can delete it, freeing your name for a new account.
- Set a strong password (e.g., “Winter2025!”).
- Enable 2FA (Settings > Security and Login > Two-Factor Authentication).
- Check “Where You’re Logged In” (Settings > Security and Login) and log out strangers.
- If the hack is too severe (e.g., account sold), Pro Support can disable it permanently. Create a new account with your name and re-verify.
Other Recovery Methods (If Needed)
Before or alongside verification, try these quick options:
- Password Reset: On the login page, click “Forgot Password?” and use your old email/phone to reset it.
- Email Revert: Check your email for “Your account was changed,” and click the secure link to undo changes.
With Meta Verified and Pro Support, though, you’re almost certain to succeed!
Tips for Success
- Act Fast: Contact support right after verifying to limit the damage.
- Be Detailed: Share exact dates and old account info for faster help.
- Use Your Blue Tick: Mention your verified status—it prioritizes your case.
- Stay Patient: Complex cases might take a few days, but Pro Support is quicker than standard channels.
