My Apologies to FB friends

Just to let my Facebook friends know that my account has been taken over by hackers. Please don't reply to any PM's that I appear to have sent you.
They are using my account to spruik crypto and my photos to catfish dating sites.
Sigh....
I can see what's happening with my account by the emails being sent to me and by friends contacting me off FB.
Sadly, one cannot contact Meta directly about this and any other attempts are routed to the hackers email which is attached to my Meta account.
Again, sorry.
The real Jeanette.

The Merc I bought with the crypto (so say the hackers) or the real car I actually just bought after saving hard for a deposit? Lol
My real car is so nice. A 2nd hand BYD Atto3, EV.

Is it the same facebook page on your signature file?
Other users can report the page as being hijacked they will then lock it
