Someone else is using my account

What to do at once if you suspect someone else got in.

If you see posts, messages or sign-ins that are not yours, act right away.

If you can still sign in

  • Change your password.
  • Sign out of all other devices under “Signed-in devices and signing out”.
  • Look at the “Security history” to see what happened to your sign-in lately.
  • Turn on two-factor sign-in.
  • Delete posts or messages that are not yours, and warn contacts who received them.

If you cannot get in any more

First try “Forgot your password?”. If that does not help because your email address was changed too, write to support with the topic “Account hacked”. Give your username and the email address that was on the account before.
