JAKARTA - In early March, a group of Facebook users received a mysterious spam-like email with the caption "Your account requires advanced security from Facebook Protect".
The email notifies the user to activate the Facebook Protect feature. By asking the user to press the link provided in the email within the specified time or their account will be locked forever.
According to Facebook, the program is a security program for groups of people who may be targeted by hackers, such as human rights defenders, journalists or government officials.
Facebook intends this to monitor targeted accounts to avoid hacking and their accounts are protected by two-factor authentication.
Unfortunately, the emails that Facebook sends resemble spam. So, many people probably ignore it.
But actually, that email is an official email from Facebook. It was proven that in the first deadline, which was Thursday, March 17, many accounts were locked by Facebook. They are having trouble logging back into their account.
Those who didn't activate Facebook Protect before their deadline, apparently got a message explaining why they couldn't log into their account and offering to help them activate it.

There are also various complaints on Twitter, that people whose accounts are locked, they say that their 2FA is not working.
