I haven’t been on Facebook in something over a decade and received an email today saying that there was a request to reset my Facebook password. I decided to long into the account to delete it but the only option Facebook gave me to confirm my identity was to upload a scan of a photo ID. What insanity is that? I’m obviously not going to send them a copy of my dl. Is there any way to nuke my account without logging in or to log in without sending them any information they don’t already have?
How are they supposed to know that you want to delete your account? Like I get what you’re saying and I agree to a point, but without the password what’s the way they prevent any random person from emailing and having accounts deleted?
I’m willing to answer security questions or give them a code they send me through a text or email. I understand the need for identity verification but there are less invasive ways to do that.
They didn’t email, they tried to login directly to Facebook, and when logging in Facebook asked for their driver’s license…
