If you keep receiving Facebook account recovery code emails and you're not the one initiating the recovery process, it's essential to take some immediate actions to secure your account. Here are some points you can consider:

  1. Check Your Email Account:

    • Ensure that the recovery code emails are legitimate and are sent to the correct email address associated with your Facebook account.
  2. Change Passwords:

    • Change the password for both your Facebook account and the email account linked to it. Use a strong, unique password for each.
  3. Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA):

    • If you haven't already, enable two-factor authentication for your Facebook account. This adds an extra layer of security by requiring a code from your mobile device in addition to your password.
  4. Review Account Activity:

    • Check your Facebook account's recent activity to see if there are any unauthorized logins or suspicious activities. Facebook usually provides information about the location and device used for each login.
  5. Log Out of Other Devices:

    • In your Facebook settings, you can find an option to log out of all other devices. This is a good step to ensure that no one else has unauthorized access to your account.
  6. Contact Facebook Support:

    • If you're still facing issues, reach out to Facebook's support through their help center. Report the unauthorized access and follow their guidance on account recovery.
  7. Run a Security Checkup:

    • Facebook provides a security checkup feature that guides you through the privacy and security settings of your account. Use this tool to review and enhance your account security.
  8. Beware of Phishing Attempts:

    • Be cautious of phishing emails or messages pretending to be from Facebook. Ensure that any communications are indeed from Facebook by checking the sender's email address.
  9. Regularly Update Passwords:

    • Make it a habit to update your passwords regularly, and avoid using easily guessable information, such as birthdays or names.
  10. Educate Yourself:

    • Stay informed about common online security practices. Be aware of the latest scams and phishing techniques to better protect yourself in the future.
