Facebook account hacked: start with the official security flow
A safety-first checklist for a Facebook account that may have been taken over.
Start a recovery assessmentThe situation
A takeover can change the password, contact details, or active sessions. Facebook’s hacked-account flow is the verified starting point.
Common reasons and conditions
- Unexpected messages or posts may indicate unauthorized access.
- Recovery details may have been changed.
- You should secure the account before returning to normal use.
Official recovery steps
- Open Facebook’s official hacked-account recovery page.
- Follow the security checks Facebook presents.
- After access is restored, review sessions and recovery contacts in Facebook.
What to prepare
- Approximate time of the takeover.
- The last activity you recognize.
- Any official confirmation, without sharing passwords or codes.
When the first step fails
If Facebook cannot confirm control, use only the next official screen or Help Center route it provides.
