Recover a Hacked or Locked Facebook Account

Guided recovery for Facebook accounts that were hacked, disabled, locked, or compromised by a Page-takeover scam.

What this Facebook recovery guide covers

Facebook account recovery breaks down into three flows depending on the situation: 'Find Your Account', 'Account Was Hacked', and 'Account Disabled'. Most users pick the wrong one and waste weeks. SafeRestore identifies your exact case and walks you through the right flow with the right identity proofs.

Common use cases

Frequently asked questions

What if my Facebook Page got hacked too?

Pages and personal accounts have separate recovery flows. We cover both — start with the personal account recovery, then file a Page Appeal.

How long does Facebook recovery take?

Hacked-account recovery: 3–10 days typical. Disabled accounts: 7–30 days. We give realistic timelines and escalation steps.

Will Facebook contact me by phone?

Never. Anyone who calls claiming to be from Facebook is a scammer. Recovery happens only through the in-app forms.

Can I recover an old Facebook from 2008?

Yes — we cover the 'Find Your Account by name + DOB + old email' flow that works for inactive accounts.
