How to recover a pro photographer’s hacked Meta accounts

Question

A friend who has been on Facebook and Instagram for very many years had both accounts hacked and can&rsquo;t recover them. He&rsquo;s given up. How is it possible we can&rsquo;t fix this issue in 2022?This is a pro photographer who adds value to the platforms he participates in. Daily contributions, of high quality, no political or other hysteria, exactly the participant Meta should work hard to keep, ruined because the systems we build failed him.His story here: https://www.gerryleroux.com/blog/new-beginningHe&rsquo;s basically bailing on Meta and now moving to other avenues. I can&rsquo;t imagine how annoyed he must be after 13 years of building a network. Surely this is fixable? What can we do for cases like this?
