Wrong Email Address On Set Up

I forgot my password and I forgot a letter in my email address on setup, so when I try to reset my password they send the reset code to an email address that doesn't exist. I've tried to set up a new account but it won't let me. Help!!!

Unfortunately, to reset your password you must be able to use an email address registered with Facebook. You can use an alternate email address you registered with Facebook. Otherwise, I'm afraid, without knowing your password you'll have to abandon that account. Sorry.
