A Scammer Took Over My Fb Acct And They Won't Allow Me Access
A week ago a scammer took over my e-mail and FB accts. I have my e-mail acct back, but FB still will not unlock my FB acct and they do not answer any correspondance I send to them. How do I get them to acknowledge my repeated attempts to contact them and get this resolved?

When you try to log in to your Facebook account you get a message saying Incorrect Email/Password Combination. I assume you have tried to recover your password using reset password feature. If not, click here to give it a try. If this won’t work there are good chances that your account has been hacked.
Follow these steps to recover your hacked Facebook account:
- Visit http://www.facebook.com/help/contact.php?show_form=hack_nologin_access
- Contact email address: enter your email address, if possible the same email you have registered account with
- Full name on the account: enter your full name on the account so they will be able to verify application
- Network(s) the account belongs to: try provide as many possible networks, including school, work network,…
- Email addresses that may be affiliated with the account: enter the same email you have created Facebook account with
- Your contact email address: use same email as you entered for step #2
- URL (web address link) of the profile page: simply copy/paste URL of your profile
- Description and steps to reproduce the issue: describe how your account got hacked/stolen, try to provide as many additional information as possible
- Submit “My Account Has Been Compromised” form
