Last week when I logged in to facebook to play Zynga Poker, I was told to upgrsde my flash player. Biggggg mistake. I happened to be on my PC at time and not my ipad. Regardless. I am sure I got koobfaced. Also got password hacked. So ended up locked out of FB - Could not reset password, because hacker kept resetting or something. So I did the upload of ID. Any guess as when my account will be re-enabled. Also lost 1.2 billion in Zynga chips via this hack. Most maddening thing is not being abto to contact Facebook at all.

I cannot put the url in but nothing looks odd. It is the secure http, Three ws, and facebook.com

As the moderator, try it yourself, use any password - you will I think get the same response.

I use Microsoft security essentials and browse with Chrome. I have real - time protection. The mistake I made was that I often play Zynga Poker through facebook on my I-Pad which as you know does not run flash. So I run that through the Zynga App. On this particular occassion I was working on a PC, was in chat, then when I went to Zynga on PC was told to upgrade flash. Really stupid on my part. I can deal with my stupiditiy - I locked my account after I realized the problem and could not reset the password.

MS Security essentials removed the Koobface when I ran a scan.

I have removed the virus, but I am locked out of facebook.
I followed their links and uploaded identification, but have not heard anything in a week from them. Just wondering what I should try next, they have 0 customer support

There has been no feedback for a week but maybe you cannot find this forum?

Moved from Hacked to Abandoned but hopefully the link to this thread in your email notification will enable you to re-find us to enable you to repost if you still have problems ?
