Recover Facebook Account

Recover Facebook Account This is a very common scenario that happens to Facebook users almost every day. It could be a nefarious link that you clicked at some point or even a phishing email that you opened. Whatever the cause, a hacker somehow gained access to your Facebook password and started contacting all of your Facebook family and friends to have them click on a malicious link as well.

Fortunately, there are many things he can do to get his Facebook account back if he has been hacked.

How successful you will be with these options is highly dependent on how early you detected hacking activity.

Immediately reset your email password There are two ways that hackers will try to prevent you from accessing your Facebook account. The first, and usually the first thing people notice, is that they will change their Facebook password.

But what hackers really want to do, if they can, is change the password for your email account that is connected to your Facebook account. The reason for this is that it will prevent you from requesting a Facebook password reset.

When a hacker has gained access to your Facebook account, he does not have access to your email account. Therefore, one of the first things he will want to do is reset his email account password to ensure that hackers remain blocked.

To do this in Gmail, he simply open his Gmail settings, select Accounts and Import and Change Password.

Login to your account and then enter the new password. Select Change password to finish.

Now that you have your email account registered with Facebook completely protected against the hacker, he is ready to reset your Facebook password.
