Use Your Security Question

If you can't log into your Facebook account, you may have the option to get back into your account by answering your security question. Here's how:

  1. Click the Forgot your password? link on the Facebook homepage.
  2. Follow the steps on that page to identify your account. If you have access to any of the emails listed on your account, you can request that a new password be sent to these emails.
  3. If you don't have access to any of the email addresses linked to your account, click the No longer have access to these? link under the list of email addresses. Follow the directions provided to answer your security question and regain access to your account


Get Help From Friends

If you're locked out of your account, you can use trusted contacts to get access to your account. If you have trusted contacts set up:

  1. Click Forgot your password? and find your account.
  2. Follow the instructions to use your trusted contacts to get back into your account.
  3. You'll receive a set of instructions that includes a URL. The URL contains a special security code that only your trusted contacts can access. Call your friends and give them the URL so that they can open the link and give the security code to you.
  4. Use the security codes from your friends to access your account.

If you don't have trusted contacts set up, learn how.

Please be sure to call your friends or talk to them in person. If your account was hacked, the hacker could have access to your emails as well.
