Facebook – When reporting a Facebook account as hacked or compromised will Facebook pass it on to the authorities

If I report my Facebook account as being hacked or 'compromised' will Facebook pass the matter on to the authorities?

Best Answer

It really depends on which way you were hacked. In most cases Facebook will not do anything, as it is more of a petty crime which probably happens a lot, and can be hard to prove. On the other hand if this was a large scale hacking attack where Facebook servers may have been compromised, then yes Facebook would most likely report the hacker(s) to their respected authorities.
