Facebook security: account recovery, impersonation, and privacy cleanup
Facebook accounts are valuable targets because each one connects to Messenger history, Marketplace payments, linked business pages, and years of personal photos. Questions here cover recovering hijacked profiles, dealing with fake accounts impersonating you or relatives, locking down old posts, and understanding Facebook's own Family-centered supervision tools for teens.
Recovery discussions walk through facebook.com/hacked step by step: identifying whether the attacker changed your email or just added theirs, reverting unauthorized changes with official identity checks, ending unknown sessions, and auditing third-party app permissions that often outlive the breach.
For impersonation — the most common complaint — answers explain how to report cloned profiles quickly, how to warn friends safely, and how to reduce public exposure so future clones have less material to copy. As everywhere in this community: no guidance covers accessing an adult's account without consent, and requests to do so are removed.
FAQ
My Facebook was hacked and the email was changed — what now?
Go to facebook.com/hacked immediately. Facebook's flow can revert recent email/password changes using your original credentials or trusted contacts. Act fast: the window before the attacker fully locks you out matters.
Someone cloned my Facebook profile with my photos. How do I get it down?
Use the profile's three-dot menu > Find support or report > Pretending to be someone. Ask friends to report too — multiple reports speed removal. Then tighten your friends-list and photo visibility so clones have less fuel.
How can I see which apps still have access to my Facebook?
Settings > Apps and websites lists every connected app with its permission scope. Remove anything you do not actively use; old quiz apps are notorious over-collectors.
