Have you received suspicious messages from unknown people? Do you have to re-enter your password to access your profile? You might even have your Email address or password changed. If any of these things are true, here are a few steps you can take to recover hacked Facebook accounts. Read on to learn how to do it safely. This article will walk you through the process step by step.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Messages_have_been_sent_from_your_profile_to_unknown_people\"><\/span>Messages have been sent from your profile to unknown people<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you receive a spam email, you can mark it as spam by clicking on the link or clicking on the &#8220;Report Spam&#8221; button. The email will no longer ask you for clarification but will simply state that it has been reported as spam. To get rid of the spammers, report these emails to your mobile carrier or phone provider. After you&#8217;ve reported the message, you can remove it from your inbox and keep track of who&#8217;s sending you spam.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Email_address_or_password_has_been_changed\"><\/span>Email address or password has been changed<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In case you&#8217;ve changed your email address or password, the easiest way to recover a hacked Facebook account is to confirm your identity. You can use the mobile phone number you provided when you registered to check the validity of your password. But if you&#8217;re unable to log in because your phone number was stolen, you&#8217;ll have to contact Facebook support via email to get the link to reset your password.<\/p>\n<p>First, you&#8217;ll need to check your account settings. Check if your email address and password have changed. If they are, change them immediately! If your email address is linked to Facebook, you may also be a victim of hacking. You should change your email password and remove any apps linked to your Facebook account. You should also contact the social networking site and report the breach to prevent further damage.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Stored_password_is_a_shortcut_to_login_without_typing_login_credentials\"><\/span>Stored password is a shortcut to login without typing login credentials<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you use a computer for work, you probably know how to log in without typing your login credentials. If you can login without typing your password, that&#8217;s great. If not, you can use a simple trick. If you&#8217;re logged in as a local account, simply type the name of your computer followed by the backslash, followed by your username. The message should display the name of your account and the password it requires.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Phone_number_is_a_shortcut_to_login_without_typing_login_credentials\"><\/span>Phone number is a shortcut to login without typing login credentials<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A keybinding to enter the phone number as a shortcut to the login page opens the mouse connect dialog. You can refocus the login page with another keybinding or reboot the system. A mouse connect dialog pops up when the system crashes. Refreshing the login page with a keybinding or rebooting the system clears the mouse connect dialog. A system crash is an opportunity to refocus the login page and type the username and password again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Recover Hacked Facebook Accounts Safely Are you worried that your Facebook account has been hacked?
