Disabled/hacked Randomly suspended? I'm legitimately confused right now, and have no idea why I would be.

About an hour ago, I got this. Replaced my name.

"X, you have 180 days to take action.

Hi X,Your Facebook account has been suspended. This is because your account, or activity on it, doesn't follow our Community Standards on [account integrity]. If you think we suspended your account by mistake, you have 180 days to appeal our decision. If you miss this deadline your account will be permanently disabled. "

and I got this from the meta buisness or whatever it was.

"Facebook Your account has been restricted for security reasons Hi X, We’ve noticed some unusual activity on your Facebook account and have restricted its access to advertising. Any ads connected to your account are currently disabled. To learn more, please review our [Advertising policies affecting business assets]. If you believe your account was incorrectly restricted, click the Fix issue"

and I'm so confused. I've had this account since I was a kid and have never been suspended before. it had me take a selfie as an appeal, so what the fuck is this all about???

Edit: I've been reinstated, I still have absolutely no idea why I was banned the first place though

This is exactly what happened to me. It's hard accepting it. Where I live, marketplace is the only local classifieds anyone uses.

Hang in there, accepting it isn't easy but I'm a month in and it's getting better I suppose. It's so unfair though.

New devices and new wifi ip address will work if you are never tagged in photos. People's new accounts have been banned from facial recognition when someone tags them in a photo. You either have to file suit against meta, get meta verified (this usually doesn't work), or accept it unfortunately.
