- Saint Albans, ME, USA

I was contacted by a contact on my friends list through Messenger. I was told she had a new phone and needed me to accept notification of location from the app ( which I've forgotten) and a code that would be sent to my email. I replied to " her" with the code that did come to my primary email reply and was caught in a hack of profiles and locked out of my accounts on Metas Facebook amd Messenger platforms. My profile is now being used by someone who is NOT me and is at risk of allowing further access to my digital information and possible access to other more sensitive accounts. I have taken steps to secure everything but this is a gross violation of a mentally ill, disabled senior and if its not against the law...it should be.

Someone has to find a way to punish this corporation and order them to change or stop the way these sites are run.

Im now very ill from the stress this causes...its an assault and if I find a way, Im bringing charges against someone!

Im 57 years old and have enough to deal with as my memory and my quality of life disintegrates. I used these social media sites to be able to see my family living their lives as I am alone ..and now Im frightened all the time that what little I have will be stolen because they stole my personal social media information and might be able to worm their way through everything else. I can see that there's been innumerable complaints against them and they just dont answer them. Are they children? Someone needs to be the adult and do something. Its disgusting that their address is "Hacker Way".

How much more in our face can they be?

My Banking information was stolen on line and checks were deposited and withdrawn for payment of cash. The bank charged me for all of this activity and even kept my direct deposit paychecks. They also honored request for payment to to be reversed that had already been paid out to my rental company and my car payment company stemming back to the beginning of the year. This caused my car to be repossessed and my rent payments behind several months. The bank never notified me of this activity being done.

I ordered an item thru Walmart and a few days later I received some stupid curtain from this company, and I never ordered it. How they got my personal information from Walmart?. There is a large number of people who have the same problem. This company? could be a front for the Chinese Government to steal peoples personal information.

HUCHE Enterprises Inc (Owned by Hung Che) has been using our residential address as their mailing and primary address. They have registered their business as a Stock Corporation with the California Secretary of State. Their business id number is 5448303. Just wanted to get the word out that this is a fictitious business which is using our home address for their fraudulent activity before anyone losses money to them.

I used the pittsburgh parking authority pay to park machine in Lawrenceville and the next charge to.my account was 865 bucks stolen by Hoodluvas. I looked them up on Instagram and it's supposed to be some kind of clothing company, but I never even heard of them, and never purchased anything from them. The bank released the hold on the pending charge, but they had to cancel my card, and they're saying the charge could still come out of my account. If and when it does, then I can dispute the fraudulent activity. What a way to wake up in the morning

On FB Marketplace the scammers asked for my cell phone number then sent me a code to send back. I did before I checked and realized this was a scam. Then another scammer wanted to know if I had a Zelle account. I did not reply.

I posted a listing of boots on Facebook marketplace and within minutes someone messaged me saying they were interested and then asked me for my phone number to call me and verify me for their safety. I questioned it a few times on why they needed it and then finally caved and give it to them. It sent me a Google Voice verification code and said that my number wasn’t verified. I googled this problem and it seems like others have had it too. She stopped replying so I said that I’m not selling to her and reporting her for trying to steal my identity and then now if you click on her profile, it says user doesn’t exist. Really frustrating because I don’t want people having my identity.

I tried to use my bank account tp make a withdrawal on Saturday, March 11th. My account was overdrawn. I went to Neighbors Federal Credit Union to get a statement and view my transactions. On March 6th, a withdrawal was made from a teller of $4,000. I did not make the withdrawal. The manager was able to review the teller session and determine that somebody had a Passport ID with my name and they utilized my Social Security number to make a withdrawal from my account.

I received mail to my address about signing up for bank accounts for my business which I do not have a business. I looked up the business that was named and my address is listed as the principal address. At the same time someone has opened multiple bank accounts in my name but I can only assume they are related.
