Now,if you are in full control of your account then you must change your password as soon as possible and set it harder to crack it by using combination of words,letters and special characters.http://www.techshortly.com/2011/12/how-to-recover-hacked-facebook-account.htmlUnfortunately,the username can be changed only once as it's a rule setup by Facebook.

I recommend clicking the 'Forgot your password?' link in the top right corner of the Facebook front page. This will guide you through steps to recover your account. You can also report your account as being compromised. But maybe you can still recover it, if the person that hacked it didn't change some of your profile information.

My facebook and email have been hacked. They have also changed my security question answers. I have tried everything. Nothing is working... HELP!!
2011-05-15 13:07:00
Tobias,did you really try all the steps that Facebook provides to
recover your account
? For example, have you registered more than one email address with Facebook and did you try to re-gain access using all of them? Or did you try to enter the names of friends to identify yourself?If you did all that, go to the
Help
section and ask the question how you can re-gain access to your account mentioning your user ID and your current / valid email address. You won't get a direct answer, but if you ask the question over and over, someone might take notice and at least terminate the account or help you restore it.
2011-05-01 12:48:00

2011-04-26 06:06:00
Sswarnima,did you try the suggestions above? You can regain access to your Facebook account if your email wasn't changed, if you can answer questions about your friends etc. Please take the 'forgot password' route and report that your account was possibly hacked to Facebook.

heya guys my frndz id has been hacked and there are bad wrds displaying ...the hacker has changed the password wat shuld i do plzzzz reply
2011-03-01 18:14:00
Sdeepika,please follow the advice given above. The incident has to be reported to Facebook.Your friend might be able to get the account back by reporting a 'forgotten password' and changing it using his eMail address or any secondary eMail address he registered with Facebook. Maybe the hackers didn't change it. Good luck!
2011-03-02 07:37:00
hey tina tats nt working coz he has changed evrything
2010-12-28 13:33:00
I think my facebook password was hack because few days ago, my friends list was 190 and now it consistently going down. In 3-4 days my friends list is 127. I have taken all the measures suggested by everyone.
2010-12-28 19:23:00
I hope you changed your password. Is it possible that people delete you from their friends list? Or that their accounts have been suspended?Did you write a general message to your friends or post on your wall what your suspicion is and that you don't want to defriend anyone? At least that would alert your remaining friends and avoid hard feelings.If this problem continues, feel free to post a new question. You might get some more input from the general crowd.

my emailadress and facebook account has been hacked and dont ken wot too do
2012-04-20 14:54:00
If both your email and Facebook account has been hacked then the reason might be that you were using same password for both.All you have to do is reset the password with stronger one of both the accounts and try to get full control of it.How to Recover and Reset Gmail (Google Account) Password -http://www.mydigitallife.info/how-to-recover-and-reset-gmail-google-account-password/For hotmail -http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/hotmail/hacked-account-faqHow to recover hacked Facebook account - http://techably.com/recover-hacked-facebook-account/4766/
2010-07-20 07:20:00
When you say that your Facebook ID has been hacked, I thought you mean that your unique ID has been hacked which has a number like 138904136133471.Make sure you tick in Account Settings --> Account security, that is ticked so you know every device that will access your Facebook profile. If you see one that you don't know, delete it and change your password.
2010-07-18 14:53:00
If you still have access to the account, follow the steps that Ryan has suggested above and you will be back on your feet. If, however, you no longer have access to your account, make a report to the Facebook team at the link below:
2010-07-18 14:09:00
First - it may not have been hacked, you may have clicked that "keep me logged in" on the login page at a public (or semi-public) location. First, obviously, change your password to something very difficult for someone to guess. Second, the thing I tell everyone who has had this happen is to *always* make sure that box is never selected, particularly if they are checking Facebook at a library or Internet cafe. The next person who gets on the computer and goes to Facebook will instantly be on your account if you don't.
2011-11-03 14:55:00
or u can get back your id by using primary mail account...
