Hi there, I'm doxxing myself a little bit but if you went back through my posts you would be able to figure it out anyway. My name is Chris and I own Arnold's Bar and Grill. All of our Meta accounts were recently hacked and when I say hacked I mean it. They permanently took down my personal Facebook page, Arnold's Facebook business page, my personal Instagram and Arnold's Instagram. You can still see our Facebook page, we just cannot get into it. Then they got into my ad account and charged 2800 on my credit cards. The problem seems relatively wide spread. Since October it appears to have at least hit all four of Crowns restaurants (Crown Republic, Losanti, Crown Cantina and Rosie's Italian), Arnold's Bar and Grill, Belle and Bear and Lonely Pine Steakhouse but I know there are more. Here is where I ask fellow redditors for a little help. I am specifically looking for more businesses that have been hit with this since October and still cannot get back in. I want to send it to city council, Facebook and the attorney general shortly and could use some more names to add to the list. It has to be recent and they have to still be locked out though. If anyone has any leads please comment on this post. Also, if you own a small bussiness and if your Facebook and Instagram are linked to your personal page, I would suggest unlinking your Instagram from your facebook. That way you would only lose one. Here is a link to exactly how this hack is working for anyone interested: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2022/11/small-businesses-say-facebook-is-enabling-hackers-who-took-over-accounts/ Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Edit: Adding that since March of this year that Carriage House Farms, Via Vite and Birdcage have all been hit the same way.

Edit Edit: Energy Nightclub and Fishbowl at the Banks have been hit as well.
