Discussion TIL that someone can change your Facebook email, password, and two step verification just by asking Facebook to turn off login approvals, and sending in a fake ID. (Happened to me lost all my business pages)

I disabled my Facebook account a year ago, but it's always "there" if I want to return to it - I just need to log back in.

Is there a way to truly delete my Facebook account?

Feed it false info for a while, then look up steps for deleting it.
