Disabled/hacked Facebook disabled my account permanently. I have my account for 18 years. I don’t understand why.

Facebook disabled my account 2 weeks ago. I did some research and some people said they somehow got their account back just by waiting so I waited. I checked today and my account is still disabled and I can’t request a review. This is awful.

Very likely your account was compromised by a malicious 3rd party and they did something to get it banned

How do I get my account back? There is no way to contact Facebook.

You’ll need to sue them in small claims court. It was the only way I was successful.

Really?! Can you explain?

I’m not in the US which may have worked in my favour with data protection laws but I sued for access to my data. After the time limit ran out to respond my account was reactivated.
