Unable to recover my facebook account

Hello,

Can someone please help me, it's extremely urgent my account has been suspended due to apparently unusual activity. Facebook is asking me to confirm my identity by getting help from my friends. I’m given 4 options and apparently I need to contact them to ask for a code. The problem is I haven't been in touch with these people for a long time. There are no other ways to recover my account. I've tried everything for the past 2 days. My account dates back to 2007, I have all my photos, all my old acquaintances and especially all my important documents. I’m at my wits' end. I’ve tried contacting them through Facebook but got no response; there’s no contact form or anything. I’ve really tried everything to recover my account. If anyone knows any other ways to contact them, that would be really kind. Thank you.

Configuration: Windows / Chrome 93.0.4577.82

    Hello,

    It should be noted that since the beginning of 2021, Facebook has changed its security policy. Now, any account that posts a public comment on Facebook, shares a review, an opinion in a public or private group, or sends a friend request to someone, whoever they are, will have their account automatically blocked by Facebook with a pop-up message that says: "We have detected unusual activity on your account. For security reasons, we have blocked it. It is not visible to anyone and you will not be able to access it until you have proven your identity."...

    Then, indeed, you must send documents proving your identity in order to supposedly recover your account...
    Except that everything is automated at Facebook; these are messages sent by "bots," not by humans. Thus, it is not humans who verify and check all these procedures.

    Once you send your ID card, etc., you will see that no matter what document is sent, you will receive an automatic email from Facebook saying:

    "Thank you for providing your ID.
    Hello,
    We cannot grant you access to this account or respond to your request until we have received an accepted format ID that confirms the information provided on the account.
    To find out what types of ID are accepted, please visit the help pages at:
    https://www.facebook.com/help/159096464162185/?ref=cr

    Best regards,
    The Facebook team"

    The message is automatically sent by Facebook's bot servers.

    In short, there are no humans working at Facebook who are responsible for security. Everything is done by bots.
    This means that there are no humans who verify and handle these kinds of problems, the documents sent, etc.
    In summary, no one will address the problem and your account will remain locked forever.

    Your only option will be to sue Facebook for abuse and violation of private data, since there is undoubtedly abuse given that your account was suspended without any reason or valid justification. And that Facebook has gathered all your personal private information during the entire time you used your account. By blocking your account without reason, Facebook prevents you from accessing your photos, your friends, your family, etc.
    If you are in Europe, you have very little chance of the complaint or request resulting in legal action, as they only have ghost subsidiaries and offshore companies in Europe; their headquarters and companies are located in the USA. Everything is done there.

    I tell you all this because the same abnormal misadventure has happened to many of my friends who suddenly saw their accounts blocked by Facebook for absolutely no reason.
    There apparently is a malfunction in their algorithm for detecting fake profiles and the fraudulent activities of certain fake profiles. In fact, when you are a real profile and talk with a profile that has had security issues, hacking, identity theft in the past, your account is detected by Facebook's algorithms as a fake profile, and therefore your access to your account is directly blocked.
    When you join a public or private group on Facebook and post a comment that others do not like, they report you; your account will automatically be blocked by Facebook.
    If you send friend invitations to people you actually know in real life, it is considered fraudulent behavior by Facebook, which will immediately block your account.
    If you join a group or a commercial page or otherwise on Facebook, and for example, you talk in English with an admin or a moderator, that behavior is detected as suspicious by Facebook, and your account is immediately blocked or suspended.

    Based on my friends' experiences, there is a common point that explains the circumstances in which Facebook has blocked their account for no reason: They were members of regional sales groups in their respective countries. These groups are often infested with scammers, fake profiles, African "scammers," etc., who spend their time scamming real European profiles and impersonating their identities, their private photos, their IDs by posing as white people.
    Multiple members posted about being fed up with the scam attempts from these fake profiles and African "scammers." My friends noticed these fake profiles and these "scammers," and they reported them to Facebook.
    Instead of blocking their accounts, Facebook some minutes later directly blocked my friends' accounts, with the famous message "We have detected unusual activity on your account......"
    My friends gave me the fake names of these African "scammers" and fake profiles, I checked their profiles on Facebook recently, and they are still there... Yet they have been reported en masse by many people, and Facebook has not blocked their accounts, deleted them, or notified the responsible police authorities...

    This is all to tell you that the modus operandi seems to be the same every time with Facebook's flawed new parameters.

    Worse, my friends have sent them about thirty emails, and at least 15 times their identity documents, and Facebook has never responded to these emails or unlocked their accounts.

    Currently, these African "scammers" are living the good life on Facebook as Facebook's algorithms for detecting fake profiles are a real blessing for them. They can comfortably continue their scams.
    In any case, Facebook's algorithm detects real profiles and punishes them as well, while leaving fake profiles and fraudulent, even criminal accounts alone.

    For your information, all the email addresses provided to contact Facebook have not been functioning since 2018.
    Only 3 email addresses are listed on Android, but Facebook never responds to emails. You can try if you want. My friends did, but no human responds:

    facebook.android@fb.com
    android-support@fb.com
    lite-android-support@fb.com

    These email addresses seem to actually be ghost addresses where no human works for technical support.

    And it is useless to create another account because my friends tried, and just a few minutes after their creation, Facebook directly disables the accounts, and there is no way to recover them; they receive an email saying "You have 30 days to request a review." You click on the link they provide, but the link does not work.

    I hope I was able to help you by providing all these details.

      Several members were posting about how they were fed up with the scam attempts from these fake profiles and African scammers.
      My friends noticed these fake profiles and scammers, and they reported them to Facebook.


      If the posts are in groups, it's better to report them to the group administrators... rather than Facebook...
      That said, the number of reports also matters... if the same profile reports the same post or account multiple times in a short period, it can also be seen as a bot and therefore their own account may be blocked. ;)
