Is my Facebook account compromised?

[Miss]

I joined FB the year it was created, when you needed a college email in order to join. I was able to access the account until today, where it's now saying that my email doesn't exist! I don't know what to do because I haven't used my college email address in years! So I don't know if someone has accessed my account and changed things or what! Any advice on what to do?

Your college probably deactivated the email. And if Facebook was trying to send emails to it that bounced, they probably deactivated your account. There were also recent articles out about Facebook doing a verification sweep -- lots of people are having to submit ID, etc., to prove they are who they say they are. You should contact Facebook and ask what you need to do to get into your account.
