My Facebook was hacked my emails and password was changed I searched Facebook customer service I called what I thought was Facebook support they said I needed to add my money on cashapp and then add it to Bitcoin then said I will get it back in 48 hours and not to contact my bank or open any suspicious txts or emails. and that the hackers were already on my cashapp, venmo, PayPal and that this was needed to be done so the hackers didnt take my money. I waited the 48 hours and they said they weren't able to return my money and I had to wait till the next morning. I asked to speak with a supervisor and he said he was the supervisor I asked to speak with someone else and he wouldnt. He was on my phone using a app called anydesk. I searched the number he contacted me from 510-939-3475 and I found this and that they are Facebook imposters.

Her Facebook account was hacked. She googled the phone number for Facebook Security and the number 510 939-3475 came up. She called the number and spoke to a Jacob. They had her put $205.00 into bitcoin; sold it and had her send the $205 to Bastian Merriam ($theironavenger64). Jacob then called her back and told that in order for them to return the $205, she needed to remove all her money from her bank account and put it in Cashapp; she refused. They keep telling her this is necessary to verify the bank info. She has removed her money from the bank and has alerted her financial institutions of possible fraud.

I Found this number for Facebook customer support through a Google search and called the number because my wife's Facebook page had been hacked. The "customer support person" said that someone had changed the email address and phone number on her Facebook account and was using it to post Marketplace adds so steal money from people. He said that I needed to download the Anydesk app so that he could see my screen and gained access to my wife's phone. He then told me had the hacker had created a cash app account in my wife's name and asked me to open her ****** account. I did this and then he told me to download a **** ********** app. When he said this, red flags went up and I told him that I would have to call him back. I asked him to disconnect the anydesk app which he did and he gave me his "direct line" (805) 668-4298, name- William, ID# 707 and a case# and told me to call him back. I hung up and deleted the anydesk app abd then did a Google search on the phone number I had called him on and this ScamPulse.com scam report came up. Now my wife is getting a new phone and has to change all of her passwords. I don't know if everything is compromised but she is doing it to be safe.

Told me I had spyeye malwale on my phone and they could remove it. I gave access to log into my phone and after 1 hour of the scammer having access they said my device was now cleaned. A friend suggested that it was suspicious and i started noticing weird stuff. When I was on automated phone calls where you input information by clicking on the keypad the automated system would not recognize my input. Also when i ran Kapersky antivirus software to check my apple id it showed an id that wasn't mine. Now my passwords are comprised and I have to buy a new photo because resetting the phone to factory settings wouldn't work. They could track all my actions and even key strokes.

I called for tech support about my Facebook account being disabled. They told me to download an app called quick book. And the code given on the app.

Not sure why I need that app.

They should be able to fix this part on their end not send downloads to my phone.

Then they hung up.

I've tried calling 3 more time.

They keep on hanging up, the last time they told me to shut up.

This phone number needs to be taken 9ff Google, and they needs to be traced.

Also Facebook needs to fix people accounts and not disable them for no reason.

I had a product listed on Facebook marketplace. I received a message saying they were very interested. They asked for my phone number so they could call me to discuss the sale. They said to protect their interests, they would send me a code to my phone number, and I would message them the code. Then I was told the phone was "not secure" per Google phone, and asked for another phone number. I gave them my business phone, and again got the same response. They were insistent on me giving them another family members number. That is where I paused and told them no

I received a text msg that said: no subject/[Facebook] We received reports concerning your recent posts and comments on our platform: http://fbreports-tqvr0h9lnn3g.webplus.al

When I clicked the link to see what it was all about my phone popped up that it was an unsecure site, and could hurt my phone or that sender could be trying to get my personal information. Not my phones exact wording, it is how ever exact wording I typed out for what the text said. I knew it wasn't true also cause I am irked at facebook and have been for awhile so I have been on it to comment or post anything at all in months. Since facebook makes it next to impossible to tell them this stuff I came here to let others know. I have received 2 of these in 2 days both from different addresses. Didnt see a phone number it came from. That first one I typed out came from [email protected]. The second one said exactly the same words but came from [email protected]. I did text back and say thats funny I have not been on facebook in months and if they didnt leave me alone I would report them, Ive heard nothing since.

I receive a text message from the number listed above and in the accompanying screenshot attached below. The text says that Facebook has removed a post from my business page. My business page hasn't been active for several years. There is a dubious link included in the message. I checked the link from a virtual machine and it takes you to a page asking you to log in to Facebook. Naturally I didn't do this. I did check my Facebook page through my phone app and there is no indication that I've had any posts removed from any pages further suggesting that this text is a phishing attempt.

I called a number that I thought was customer service for facebook. I wanted to call and complain to facebook about some unauthorized charges to my PayPal account totaling $350. They said that they have a minimum of $750 to refund. so, they told me in order to get my refund back, I had to give them $400 to make up the difference before they would refund my money...$750. They wanted me to buy a google play card in the amount of $400, call them back and give them the number of the card, then they would refund me $750...clearly a scam...

I took copious notes, so you should contact me as needed to flesh out the details. Basically, my iPhone 4 stopped working as it had for some time, years, before. This was on Sat. June 23.

I looked for online references that might help, especially FaceBook help pages. This led to Google results. Among the top results was a phone number for a customer service center for FaceBook. Since it was on Google, I took this to be legitimate. 888/ 743-0274. They seemed to be the real deal. They said they could reset my account.

Indeed, after I gave them my email address, I got an email that looked like it came from FaceBook. They asked me for my account number and password, but I had forgotten them. They said never mind, put me on hold and came back with the explanation that my account had been hacked and that all my related financial information was compromised.

They sent me over to another phone center. This one told me I needed to pay $200.00 and go buy a Google Play card, because they could not take a payment over the phone as my info was compromised. They gave me a number to call back. This one was 914/ 290-4991 and I should call ext 321 for Benny.

I kept asking why this was necessary, and got the story that this was needed as a deposit only and that this would be refunded. The purpose of it was that Microsoft required this before it would allow the software to be used on a rental basis. I tried to probe further into this and was told to "believe me when I tell you."

I called a third number that popped up on Google, and this one was answered by a young woman, also with the same Indian accent. 877/ 915-5164. I asked her where she was. She said Menlo Park. I asked her if she knew there were outfits using the FaceBook name for scamming. She said she was not there to answer questions about my curiosity. She abruptly hung up.

I request that you accelerate this up to a higher level than just one customer complaint.

If FaceBook is allowing Google to display these phone numbers, it means that both companies are profoundly compromised. If FaceBook is actually operating incompetent customer service which includes really bad public information in an environment that is otherwise noted for world-spanning capacity to reach billions of people, then the entire corporate foundation is in jeopardy. I want to know if there is anyone intelligent who will speak to this.

Apparently facebook doesnt have a phone call number. When trying to contact facebook the first number you find are these numbers. They ask you to buy i tune cards to add a antivirus to your phone because it was compromised that the is the reason facebook was blocked, that someone has acess to you Facebook and phone.
