Subject: Locked out of a very old account and need to delete it - No access to old email/phone

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for some advice on a difficult situation. I have a very old Facebook account from years ago that I desperately need to delete.

The Problem:

  • No Access: I no longer have access to the email address or the phone number I used to create the account.
  • Identity Change: Since that time, I have undergone a significant lifestyle change (becoming religiously observant). My appearance has changed significantly, and my last name is also different now because I got married.
  • Verification Issues: Because my current ID photo and name don't match the old profile (different look and different last name), the automated "Identify" tools aren't working for me.
  • Privacy: I want this account gone as it no longer represents who I am today.

What I've tried:

  • The standard facebook.com/login/identify path (failed because of the lack of contact info).
  • Reporting the profile for "impersonation" (hasn't worked yet).

Has anyone successfully managed to get an old account deleted by contacting a human at Meta or through a specific legal/privacy form? I am even willing to hire a professional service if it's legitimate.

Any guidance or "hidden" links for privacy-related deletions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

i am willing to pay! i tried everything nothing help!
