Facebook hacked then disabled for spam?

Why the two overlap

• The hacker posts links or messages to many people.
• Reports arrive from the people who received them.
• The system flags the account for the behavior.
• The email or phone may be changed, so notices do not reach you.

What to do

1. Change the email password and enable two-factor on it.
2. Use the hacked-account flow for Facebook.
3. Appeal the disabling, with dates and a short account of what you saw.
4. Warn friends by another channel not to click anything.

What to send

• Your Facebook profile link or the name on the profile.
• A screenshot of the message or error, with the date visible.
• Which email address or phone number is on the account (just which one, never a code).
• What happened before it started, in a few lines.

Please do not send passwords, login codes, card numbers or access tokens.

How it works with Unbanz

1. Message us on WhatsApp or email with your Facebook profile link and a screenshot of the message.
2. We tell you honestly whether this is something we can help with.
3. We prepare the appeal and the supporting details, to go through Facebook’s own channels.
4. We stay in touch while you wait. Meta makes the final decision, and nobody can promise the outcome.

Who this is for

• People whose friends got spam from them.
• Owners with a changed email.
• Accounts that went from hacked to disabled.

Staying safe

Nobody needs your password or login codes to help you. If someone in your DMs offers to fix it, asks you to log in through their link, or wants to be paid in gift cards, walk away. Unbanz never asks for logins. We are an independent paid service, not affiliated with Meta: payment is upfront, with a 100% refund if the case fails. For Facebook and Instagram cases we work through our contacts at Meta, and Meta makes the final decision.

Questions people also ask (2026)

Does a recognised device help?

Often, yes. Meta may trust a phone, browser or network you have used to log in before, so try recovery from that device and connection rather than a new one.

Hacked and then disabled: which comes first?

Start with the hacked route (instagram.com/hacked or facebook.com/hacked), not the normal appeal, so the record shows the account was taken. Secure the linked email and phone first, then appeal the disable if a button appears. Report the scam where you live (table below).

What if a hacker changed the email and phone?

Check the old inbox for a security email from Meta about the change. It can include a link to undo it. On Instagram, use “My login details were changed” in the login help, or instagram.com/hacked.

Updated November 2026

For a takeover, start at instagram.com/hacked or facebook.com/hacked from a device you used before. If the hacker changed the email, Meta’s flow lets you choose that you no longer have access and verify another way. After you are back, check Accounts Center for unknown logins and connected accounts, and turn on two-factor authentication. See Facebook hacked and email changed.

The hacker changed my email and phone. Can I still recover it?

Often yes, through the hacked page and identity checks such as a video selfie. Use a device and network you used before.

What to send us

• The username or profile link.
• A screenshot of the exact notice, with the date visible.
• Whether you already appealed, and what Meta replied.
• Whether you still have the email and phone number on the account.
• Never your password or login codes.
