My Facebook was stolen?

[HandsomeG]

My Facebook account was stolen from me today. The email, password, phone number and everything has been changed. The hacker changed the name on my account, then deactivated it. I'm not sure if he has it set to delete within 14 days or what. How can I report a deactivated account? Is there any hope of me getting my account back? I had over 2,000 friends.

I advised him to use the means that Facebook provides to reset passwords to hack his account back. The procedure for this is simple:

1. Go to Facebook then click on “Forgot your password”.
2. Enter the email address or account name you use to login in the “Identify Your Account” screen then click on “Search”.
3. Enter the letters you see in the “Security” screen that pops up then click “Submit”.
4. Click on “Reset Password” in the “Reset Your Password” screen.
5. Facebook will then send you an activation code to the email address for your account.
6. Enter this code in the “Please check your emails and text messages” screen then click on “Submit Code”.
7. Enter a new password and confirming password in the “Enter New Password” screen then click on “Change Password”.
8. Click on “Save and Continue” in the “Update Security Settings” screen.
