Hey everyone, hoping someone here has been through this and can help.

I use Facebook exclusively for running ads. no posting/groups or anything else personal. Out of nowhere, Facebook prompted me to add a passkey. There was no way to skip it, so I went through with it. It then asked for a face scan as part of the verification. I submitted it, and a couple of hours later I got hit with a "permanently disabled" saying I violated community guidelines and no way to appeal.

I have absolutely no idea what I did wrong. My account is purely for ads management.

Here's what's at stake:

- Access to multiple ad accounts and business portfolios

- Business pages

- I need to understand what triggered this so a new account doesn't get the same treatment

I know I can create a new account and have my manager re-grant access to our internal assets, but personal ad accounts and pages, I can't just recreate those.

Has anyone successfully appealed a permanent disable that happened after this passkey/face scan flow?

Any advice on the appeal process or who to contact would be hugely appreciated.
