Hello,
I always have been encountering a problem while logging in my account at facebook. I have been facing a message shown below:



Your account has been temporarily suspended.

Suspicious activity has been detected on your Facebook account and it has been temporarily suspended as a security precaution. It is likely that your account was compromised as a result of entering your password on a website designed to look like Facebook. This type of attack is known as phishing.

Then I click on the 'continue' button. After that, I was asked to a code given
'Please answer a security challenge:'

Next, I was asked to confirm the security identity


'To confirm that this is your account, please answer the following security question.'
In what city or town was your mother born?:


But I am quite sure that I didn't enter any answer to the question above.


It would be quite appreciated if you couconfirmp me with this

Perhaps you have tried to connect to FB from away from your usual place and FB's robot is very sensitive to that.

I am sorry but I have given you all the info that I have to recover your account and there is no way to talk to a human. Facebook, in its growth lost all human approach, money is the game.

Sorry

Thanks a lot.
But it was logged in very well. However, someday, I faced a problem logging in with it. I don't what is the reason. I waslongingg in it about six months ago. I used it to logging to another web site which allow to log in with facebook account. but I didn't think that my accountcompressedd from that site.
But what I am quite surpriseaboutut is why whenever changege my password with that information provideded I see that an email sent to my yahoo's mail with which I used to create facebook account

It is automatic, because to log in to facebook. you must enter with your e-mail followed by your password.

The yahoo mail is also used as a safety alternative e-mail account.

Do you still use the same Yahoo ? Was your Yahoo hacked ?

No, my yahoo is not hacked, this is why I am asking you that if my facebook account hacked, then I would receive an email whenever the hacker tried logging in my facebook. So, I am quite surprised that whenever I change my password with that link you provide, I see that facebook send my a notifications to my yahoo's mail. So, why I cannot log in facebook's account as long as facebook account send any notification for any change????????????

Also,
I have applied your steps which said that:
If your Account Has Been Hacked And You Have Access To your Login Email
* Go here: https://ssl.facebook.com/help/contact.php?show_form=hacked_self_recovery


And I also end up having this error:::

Your account has been temporarily suspended.
