Spotting recovery scams

Losing an account makes you a target for a second scam.

Losing an account puts you in a hurry, and scammers know it. These are the signs.

• 🚩 Asks for your password or login codes
• 🚩 Found you through a comment or DM after you posted about being hacked
• 🚩 Calls themselves a "hacker" or "Meta insider"
• 🚩 Wants crypto or gift cards
• 🚩 Promises to "hack back" the account
• 🚩 No real website, no business email, no refund terms

What a legitimate service looks like

• Works only through Meta's official channels
• Never needs your password
• Has a public site, a business email and written refund terms

That's the standard UnbanPro holds itself to, with a 100% refund if we can't get your account back. Also see fake Meta messages.

How the scam plays out

1. You post "my account was hacked" or comment on a recovery thread.
2. Within minutes, "hackers" reply or DM you with success screenshots.
3. They ask for an upfront fee in crypto, and then a second "unlock" fee.
4. Sometimes they also take your email password and steal more accounts.
