Report any unauthorised charges to Meta Business Support immediately."}],faqItems:[{question:"The hacker changed both my email AND phone. Can I still recover?",answer:"Yes — the photo-ID verification path doesn't require either to still match. Meta verifies you against the name on the account using a government ID. The catch is timing: the queue is busier (3-7 days vs 24 hours for self-serve), and submitting from a brand-new device or new IP region lowers your confidence score. Use a familiar device and Wi-Fi where possible."},{question:"Why does the photo-ID upload keep getting rejected?",answer:"Common causes: (1) the ID name doesn't match the Facebook profile name (and you didn't include any former-name documentation), (2) the photo is blurry, dark, or has glare, (3) part of the ID is cut off — Meta needs all four corners visible, (4) the ID is expired (most countries — Meta accepts 6-month-expired IDs from a few jurisdictions, but fresh is safest). Re-upload a clear, well-lit, fully-visible, current ID."},{question:"How long does Facebook take to recover a hacked account?",answer:"Self-serve revert link: instant. Hacked-portal flow with email or phone still attached: 24-48 hours. Photo-ID verification: 1-3 business days, sometimes up to 7 during peak periods. Trusted Contacts: as fast as your contacts respond — usually under an hour if they're online."},{question:"The hacker is messaging my friends asking for money — what do I do?",answer:'Get any other Facebook user (a friend, family) to report the scam Messenger thread and the compromised profile through Profile → ⋯ → Find Support or Report Profile. Three or more reports trigger a faster review. In parallel, post a public status from another Facebook account or Instagram warning your friends. Do NOT pay any "recovery service" — 100% are scams; Meta is the only entity that can restore access.'},{question:"How do I prevent this from happening again?",answer:"Three things: (1) enable authenticator-app 2FA — never SMS-only, since SIM-swap is a major attack vector. (2) Set up Trusted Contacts (Settings → Security → Choose 3-5 friends) so you have a recovery path that doesn't depend on email or phone. (3) Don't click suspicious links in Messenger, even from friends — compromised accounts are the #1 phishing vector on Facebook.

After 30 days of no successful appeal, Facebook starts permanent-deletion countdown (an additional 90 days before the data is purged). After day 120 total, recovery is impossible."},{question:"Can Facebook disable me for using a fake name?",answer:"Yes — Facebook's real-name policy requires the name you use in everyday life. Stage names, brand pseudonyms, and old legal names are allowed but must be documented (driver's license + secondary proof, or business registration). If your account uses an obviously fake name (anime characters, gibberish), the disable is much harder to reverse."},{question:"Can I create a new Facebook while my main is disabled?",answer:"Risky — if your main is just under review or temporarily disabled, creating a new account looks like ban evasion and can get BOTH accounts permanently disabled (and trigger device-level bans which are much harder to recover from). Wait until the appeal outcome before starting a new account."},{question:"Why was my Facebook disabled for no reason?",answer:`There's almost always a reason — it's just not always visible. Common "no reason" causes: (1) mass-reporting by competitors or someone you blocked, (2) friend-request spam if you sent too many to non-friends, (3) automation-detection if you used scheduling tools aggressively, (4) name-policy if your name looks fake, (5) the account was hacked and the attacker got it disabled by violating policies.

Three parallel recovery paths means losing one in the future doesn't lock you out."}],faqItems:[{question:"Can I really recover Facebook without an email or phone?",answer:"Yes — Facebook's recovery is multi-path by design. Email and phone are two signals among several; photo ID, Trusted Contacts, account history, name search, and saved logins are the others. The photo-ID path doesn't touch email or phone at all — it verifies you against the name on the account using a government ID."},{question:"I never set up Trusted Contacts. Am I stuck?",answer:"No. Trusted Contacts is just one path. The photo-ID verification works without any pre-setup — as long as the name on your ID matches the name on the Facebook account (or you can document a name change), Meta can verify you. Just be patient: the queue is 1-7 days versus instant for self-serve."},{question:"My Facebook profile uses a fake name. Can I still recover with a photo ID?",answer:"Probably not directly — Meta will reject the ID for not matching. Two options: (1) submit the name-change form first (Settings → Personal Information → Name) BEFORE recovery, but this is impossible if you can't log in. (2) If you used a documented stage/brand name, submit secondary proof (business registration, mail addressed to the name, two non-government ID forms). Recovery on pseudonymous accounts is meaningfully harder."},{question:"Will Facebook reject my recovery if I supply a different email?",answer:"No. Recovery decisions are based on overall ownership signals (ID match, account history, familiar device, recent activity), not which email you provide. Use any email you actually check — Facebook will email the result there."},{question:"How do I prevent this from happening again?",answer:"After recovery, link THREE things: (1) a permanent email (Gmail or iCloud you'll keep for 5+ years), (2) a current phone, (3) Trusted Contacts (3-5 reliable friends).

Trusted device approval: instant. SMS via new SIM: 24-48 hours (mostly waiting for the carrier). Photo-ID identity verification: typically 24-72 hours, sometimes up to 7 days during peak periods.

(2) Use an authenticator app that syncs across devices (1Password, Authy, iCloud Keychain) so a lost phone doesn't lose the codes.
