I used to have a F*ceb**k account. Last fall I figured out how to use the new camera phone and put up some pictures of the shape the animals were in when I lived with my ex. I didn't say whose they were, I acted like they were strays, but I was hoping one of my ex's friends would see them and act as her missing conscience to help get them proper care.
A few weeks later I went to go to F*ceb**k and my account was gone. Likely my ex had something to do with this but I'm not sure what exactly, whether she just logged on as me and deleted it, or filed some kind of complaint. It said I could sign up for a new one but it needed a brightly lit photo for "ID purposes". I sent the only picture I could which wasn't brightly lit because I couldn't stand up to a light - I don't quite get that, I could swear the phone has a flash - and I have never heard from them since.
Does anyone have any idea what happened here, or when this "brightly lit photo" business started, or how I can get back on F*ceb**k?
I'm having a very difficult time trying to figure out how else I might get back in touch with several people in the area who might still be my friends. I didn't have the chance to get any of their numbers into the new phone and I think I lost the list of numbers in the move somehow.
I'd be most grateful if anyone could off any clues.
PS I have no idea why I am putting *s in the name of the social media site. I have seen others do it, but not sure if it's because they think the name is loathesome and unspeakable, or whether if you spell it out it attracts spam robots or something. Shows how much I know about social media...

How could your ex log on to your account?

I have seen no issues with facebook/bookface/FB.
Did u ever give your ex your password in any way? Have you checked your email your account is linked to, to see if you received any generic emails from the facebook police?

Could it be that there was an account registration confirmation you didn't do?

There’s a horror movie called Alien? That’s really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.

If you and your ex used the same device at any time, it’s possible that the logins could have been stored on that. Also possible is that if you used an email account that you both have access to, then your ex could have done the whole “I forgot my password” thing and had it reset so she could delete it.
In terms of getting back on, maybe just start a new account with a new email address and go looking for the people you used to know: I’ve got a few mates who’ve done that after a break-up with a partner or after they’ve been hacked. That way there’s little chance of anyone else finding it. in regards to the brightly lit photo, that’s a new one on me, sorry.

Shows how much I know about social media... I apologise if I am reading what you have said the wrong way, but have you tried setting up a new account via a new email address (rather than the one you used on the old account) and uploading your photo profile yourself? Only reason I ask is that a year or two back I contacted Facebook (I went there...😱) in an attempt to help my daughter remove some old accounts (teenagers and passwords...a fatal combination..🤦♂️) and the long and the short of it was that it would have been simpler to slam my head in the fridge door repeatedly. They are not exactly great at customer services. If I am reading what you have said correctly you might be in for a long wait for them to act. The photo ID thing? That's a new one. I'm guessing it's just a standard declaration for any enquiries - a bit like we are told over here that our passport photos have to be all serious (no smiling, look straight ahead, no face pulling) and why I now have a travel document with a photo attached that would not look out of place on Interpol's most wanted list. Would have thought if you verified your email address and/or a mobile number then the brightness of your picture shouldn't be too much of a deal for identification purposes. As for asterisking Facebook (I went there again...😱), pretty certain that it is the former rather than the latter - but don't say their name five times in a row otherwise Mark Zuckerberg will appear behind you...😋 |

Her FB page was up for about 3 years, not for lack of trying from the parents behalf trying to get it taken down.
Customer Service.. Where they ban you for 24-48 hours and don't tell you why.
