I was dumb and got scammed

Hello Swapd, I need your help, if anyone can help.

So, long story short, I “sold” an Instagram account, and the buyer told me to give the account first, and then he will pay

I agreed, because I thought I was safe since I had the original email.

After he logged in he changed the email, disabled the account, changed the username, changed the email again, and now I have no way (to my knowledge) to get the account back.

I have the original email, I still have the facebook page linked to the account (he did not un-link it) and I also know his phone number.

Would there be any way for me to regain access?

Thanks a lot for your help!

P.S. the deal was done OUTSIDE of swapd.

Your best bet is to contact FB support.

This may help:

there is no way to recover it if he changed the email and disabled the account, he will probably activate it in a couple of weeks, try contacting the support maybe they could help if you tell them that the account was hacked.
