PLEASE READ! 🧜🏼♀️ My personal Facebook account has been suspended and I currently don't have access to it or my business page.
I'm only able to type this & post it because I had made my husband a co-admin for my Facebook business page years ago so I'm able to do this through his account.
Yesterday morning when I tried to open my page to make a post, it took me to the log in page. When I tried to log in, it told me I had 2 new Instagram accounts and they both violated Facebooks Terms of Service and that my Facebook account is now suspended.
Obviously, I didn't create those 2 accounts. Both accounts have blocked me so I can't see them.
Meta owns both Facebook & Instagram so my business pages on both platforms are connected...and I can't do anything on either platform.
I finally was able to post a Reel last night on Instagram but then Instagram removed it because they said I used someone else's content. IT'S MY VIDEO THAT I TOOK WITH MY PHONE. IT'S LITERALLY MY PROPERTY.
So, all that to say, I don't know if you'll even see this or what this means for my business pages.
I am absolutely devastated and sick to my stomach over this. I started these pages over 5 years ago. Although my following is small, we are a mighty crew of kind people that love God and the ocean He created.
I have no choice but to wait all this out and hopefully get my accounts back. I am just heartbroken.
I am on Tiktok so I suppose I'll be posting over there until this gets straightened out, if it does.
The first round of Mystery Bags went out yesterday and I'm back at it today.
If you have any questions, please message me on Etsy or follow me over on Tiktok and message me there.
I will try to keep you updated as much as I can.
I don't even know what else to say, but I am just feeling defeated. I've worked so hard to make my social media pages a fun place for us to be and a nice little escape from the craziness of this world.
Bare with me. I will try to post again tomorrow or if I hear anything back from Meta/Facebook/Instagram. I have no idea if I'm going to lose both accounts or not.
I love y'all & thank you for being here.
