Yes, I’ve done that. There was no email sent. They say they do that, but they’re lying. They don’t.

22

Understood. You’ve done all you can do, and Facebook/Meta suck donkey balls.

23

They obviously prefer for you to make a new account. Hey, that’s one more user they can tell the advertisers about.

24

Can’t make a new account, at least not using my real information. It tells me I already have an account. Just enter the password. I guess I’ll make a fake one.

Not to make light of Hudson’s troubles, I am reminded of this.

This exact thing happened to my sister in law a few weeks ago. Facebook and Instagram accounts (linked together through Meta) both hacked, e-mails and passwords changed. I tried to help her make sense of it, but all of the support articles are either incorrect (i.e. she got an e-mail saying her account’s e-mail address was changed, but no confirmation was required) or completely useless. It’s obvious Meta doesn’t give two shits about this when it happens to the common folk.

So an FYI for those with whom I am Facebook friends…I figured out why I was hacked…they simply want to spam all my friends with shit. So if you see something from my profile about crypto or window replacement or penis pills or gay porn or whatever…please do not respond. I would suggest unfriending and deleting me. I may make another page, haven’t decided yet. But beware of HH imposters!!

You were a crypto master in the post I saw. My reaction was: “WTF? The Renaissance Man has struck again.” You appeared to be quite proud of yourself.

It’s those little bits of verisimilitude that mark successful schemes.

I don’t often get a chance to work “verisimilitude” into a sentence. Nice work. I did get to use “vicissitudes” in a work presentation recently. Which was nice.

Here’s all I know about crypto trading: “I’ll give you one of these for two of those”.

Wait a minute. The pills are bogus?!?!?

So in a bizarre twist of fate, it appears that after 18 months I may have control of my old Facebook account back. Apparently I’ve friended 1,756 people and followed 677. I’m also being followed by 377. That’s about to change. I will likely delete the account, but I want to feel like I’ve won something first.

On a more curious note…the hacker set up several other profiles under the account. None of them appear to be published, but I’m wondering how one goes about deleting profiles.

I recently deleted my InstaFaceThread account, so it is possible and it wasn’t;t too crazy to get done. I can’t remember how; I just Googled “delete Facebook account” and found the instructions.

In associated news, I also deleted my Amazon Prime account. They charged me for the subsequent month but, before I could work up the energy to try and get my money back, they refunded it anyway. That was unexpected, but it is sad when a company self-correcting its own error is a stand-out piece of customer service.

Not delete the entire account, just the added profiles associated with the account. You can have up to four separate profiles on the same account. I can figure out how to delete the account, but not individual profiles.
