Why This Happens
Your Meta ad account has been compromised by unauthorized users who are running scam ad campaigns and racking up charges on your payment method. This is one of the most reported issues on Reddit in 2025-2026, with advertisers discovering thousands of dollars in unauthorized spend overnight. Hackers access accounts through phishing, weak passwords, compromised browser sessions, or by exploiting Business Manager admin access. Meta's response is often slow, and victims can face both financial loss AND account restrictions for the policy-violating ads run by the hackers.
