How do I remove a deceased persons Facebook page? - Kitty - 03-04-2014 06:47 AM
Hello,
Recently my uncle passed away. His mother wants his Facebook page to be removed. Which is now up to me to figure out. She would like me to message all his friends, through his account letting them know of his passing. Then afterward, permanently delete his account.
I told her in order to message his friends, I need his password. Or I need some way to hack into his account. Which I have absolutely no clue how to hack anything.
Does anybody have a solution? I'm still waiting for his computer to cone back from forensics. Not sure if I can get in his fb that way. Thanks

You would need his password in order to log into his account.Otherwise you would need to contact Facebook somehow and ask them to remove his account.

Facebook does not give the option to delete a deceased person's profile. If you cannot get access to his account any other way, you can report his profile to Facebook as a deceased person. https://www.facebook.com/help/contact.php?show_form=deceased

if the computer was in anyway new and up to date he would have possibly used mozilla firefox or google chrome.
These browsers have the option to save passwords so you dont have to keep inputting them into the computer.
On the off chance this is enabled all you would have to do is head to the browser, open faceboook login and start typing in his email address.
If a drop box appears select the email from there and with any luck the password will fill in automatically.
Shot in the dark but might pay off
