Re: Recovering Facebook account


 

What happened was Facebook went down due to hacking for a few hours. But when it came back as far as browsers it took me until late afternoon to get into the Facebook Android app. & there are a couple third party games I use my Facebook account to log into & 1 of those didn't start working again until about 9pm. I'm not confident I've gotten everything back. I sent emails to Meta & the game developer for that 1 game that stayed non-functional until near 9pm. I was in chat with Google as well about this & a few other issues that we thought might be related for a couple hours. I've heard some other major websites were also hacked this morning & brought down or otherwise greatly affected.

Dan, I did not change my password. It did reject my password the first time I entered it, but accepted it the second time.?

Patricia,
Did you change your password today? It won't accept my old one or the new one I thought I had changed it to.

I had a similar problem this morning, which made me really nervous. I was able to successfully log in, and have had no problems since. But that doesn't mean I'm not nervous.?

I was on FB this morning when their problems started, but I thought?someone had just hacked my account. I typed a comment but FB wouldn't post it. I got the sense that someone had changed my password so I tried to reset the password. That first appeared to work but then I couldn't actually log in with the new password. It got weird when I asked it to send me a recovery code (from a "forgot you password?" link).?It sent me a code but didn't accept it. I stopped and tried again hours later. Then, when I asked for a code, I got 2 emails with different numbers! (and it simply failed when I asked to get a code via text.) I paused and for hours again and just tried again. Now it only sends me one number but says it's not the right code when I enter it.
Does anyone have any idea whether FB accounts are mostly still not working? My wife never tried to change her password today and says her account is working. Do I just wait it out or is there something I should be doing?

Thanks,
Dan Freidus
