    The only reason you account gets hacked if you set an easy password.
    Dont be a moron and set a complex password!

    Not sure why Facebook doesn’t take care of this at first place. There system is risky.

    I suggest you to submit this form above… I think this is the only way you can get your hacked account back.

    I got hacked Aug 24th stating I was doing something with a Muslim and then a real nasty profile pic (I’ll leave that to the imagination). I reset password and took down a bunch of stuff, also left some groups on FB that were targeted (Christian). Just have them re-send your password to your email and do a complete scan on your computer/remove cookies. I may not stay there, don’t feel safe.

    My account has also been hacked but unfortunately I don’t see any posts re similar story. I can still log in to FB but only as the person who hacked me. All my info, friends and applications have gone and the profile is entirely different because it’s it’s his and not mine. I reset my password (as recommended by fb)but am still the hacker :( FB have been notified but I get no reply and I’m getting quite frustrated by the time and effort i’m putting in to resolve the issue. Does FB support really exist???
