Compromised Facebook account? - HwX - 03-24-2014 04:20 PM
Hey , so my facebook account has been hacked. the Facebook asked me to send an ID picture with the name of my profile , picture and birthday date. and i sent them a pic of my passport.
But it has been 1 week since i sent them the picture and they didn't response. So is that natural or they're so late ?

Go to facebook website and read FAQ's (Frequently Asked Questions) regarding this. if you don't get the answer there . email to Facebook again requesting for respone.

preeeeeeeeeeeetty sure youve been scammed.. sorry lol
facebook wouldnt ask for a photo ID
they would send a password recovery email to you, or ask you a 'secret question' to give you your account back.
if facebook sent you an email saying that your account had been hacked, then its definately not facebook, and you have definately been scammed.
if someone wants your I.D they probably want to commit identity theft for something.
you should be wary
EDIT: if you emailed facebook saying that your account had been hacked, then theres a chance that its not a scam i guess.. but they still wouldnt have asked for a photo id...
