My Facebook account has disappeared!
This afternoon I went to check facebook and a screen came up saying I have been blocked...no reason given. There was a screen that said they wanted to
confirm my identity and I had to video my face turning right, then left, right and left and up and down! Then I had to take a picture of my ID and the
screen said it may take awhile to verify my identity...soooo weird.
I dont post gross stuff, except dead pinnipeds, dont swear hardly ever, dont do politics so have no idea why I was blocked.
Has this happened to others??

Shari, I'm no FB expert, buy you should do a search and verify that FB is doing this to users. Or contact FB directly (is that even possible?  )
I am worried that it could be a phishing attempt or some other hacking.

I'm thinking the same. Best to be careful with ID info.

I was concerned about that too....but this is what comes up when I try to connect to FAcebook to try to get more info....
Thanks, Shari. We'll send an update once we've reviewed your submission.
We're always looking out for the security of our community, so until then you won't be able to use Facebook.

How bizarre is right. I do know 2 people who were blocked, it is temporary and usually happens when there is a complaint - radical political views,
certainly NOT your case at all, which makes it all the more bizarre.

It seems rather a coincidence that someone reported my profile as fake on FAcebook on the same day someone is smearing me here and calling me fake
...cyber hit? hmmmmm

It has been interesting and revealing disappearing from FAcebook and Messenger as well. Many friends have stopped in personally to ask what's up and
others have called wondering why I unfriended them...haha. It is refreshing to know that people noticed my absence & care enough to check in to
see that I am OK...thank you amigos!
I had a thought that may be helpful. I ask my friends to please post on their wall that I have been blocked for a reason unknown to me but I hope to
be back posting pics of having fun soon!
It may have something to do with identity verification..perhaps someone has reported me....(falsely as I use my own name) but Facebook has to verify
it. JJJ said it wasnt him! Some have told me it's for a week although FAcebook says it is backlogged due to Covid and so a resolution could take some
time.
So please let my other friends who arent here on Nomad know I am OK and hope to be back soon with fishing reports..haha...gracias
In the meantime some photos from the last few days of ocean fun, my grandson with his dogs & sunset...proof I'm alive!
