I just found out that someone may have hacked my Facebook account. I was logged out unexpectedly, and now I can't log back in. Some of my friends said they received weird messages from me too. I'm starting to panic a little. What's the first thing I should do to try and recover my account?

Hi there, sorry to hear that your Facebook account may have been hacked. That can be really stressful, but don’t worry, you can still take steps to fix it.

Here’s what you should do right away:

  1. Go to Facebook’s recovery page here: https://www.facebook.com/hacked
    Follow the steps to report the hack and try to recover your account.

  2. Once you regain access, change your password and turn on two-factor authentication (2FA) right away.

  3. Let your friends know that your account was compromised so they don’t fall for any suspicious messages.
