Bought a Facebook account? Here is how to log in without getting checkpointed

Most support tickets we handle aren't about bad accounts. They're about the first login going wrong. This is the order of operations that causes the fewest problems.

Read the delivery format first

You'll usually get one line with fields separated by | or ----, something like:

login | password | 2FA secret | email | email password | cookie

The order is written in the product description. Match every field before you try anything. Typing the email password into Facebook a few times is enough on its own to trigger a security check.

The environment matters more than anything

• One account, one environment. If you use an antidetect browser, give each account its own profile.
• Use an IP close to where the account was registered. A US account on a US IP behaves very differently from the same account on a random proxy.
• Skip free public proxies. Facebook has seen most of them before.

If the delivery includes a cookie, log in with the cookie first. It's far less likely to trigger verification than a fresh password login.

Using the 2FA secret

When Facebook asks for a 6-digit code, paste the 2FA secret (the long string of letters and numbers) into any authenticator app, such as Google Authenticator, or a web-based 2FA tool. Codes rotate every 30 seconds; if one expires, wait for the next.

Don't change things on day one

This is where people lose accounts. Logging in and immediately changing the password, email and name, then adding a dozen friends, looks exactly like a hijacked account to Facebook.

A calmer schedule:

• day one: just browse, scroll the feed, like a few posts
• a day or two later: move 2FA to your own authenticator, then change the password
• email and phone last, one change at a time

If the listing says "do not change the password immediately", take it seriously. The supplier knows how that batch behaves.

Check it promptly

Most warranties cover the first login, so log in and check as soon as you receive the account, and contact support the same day if something's wrong. Download the account details as a TXT file from your order page and keep a local copy.
