I need some help with this Facebook problem. Every time I try to like, comment, or follow someone, Facebook locks me out of my account, asks for a security check, and then restricts my account for 24 hours. It's happened three times in a row now. What's going on? I've done the security check each time and found no security issues or unknown activity.
Hey, [Name], It seems someone might have gotten into your Facebook account. To make sure it's safe, you'll need to answer a few questions and change your password the next time you log in to Facebook. For now, your Facebook activity is hidden to keep you safe until you've secured your account.

I need help sorting out this problem. I've tried reaching out to them, but they're not helpful at all.
 
Someone else is using your account on another device. You should check your login security and remove any devices that aren't yours.

That's not the issue; I checked the activity log, and no other device is logged in. It only happens when I try to do anything like liking, commenting, sharing, or following.
 
Are your IPs from the same location? Make sure to log in from the same city to avoid triggering any alerts.

Do you click on links a lot? I think you should change your device because it's being heavily scanned.

First, try switching to a different device. If the problem persists, contact Facebook support immediately. Provide a detailed explanation of the issue and include a screenshot for reference.

No, I'm at my desktop with the browser saved. This issue only occurs after I perform an activity, as I mentioned.

Do you mean from Facebook? I did click on some links that were obviously spam. This is my main desktop. What is scanning my device? Facebook itself?

Facebook support is terrible. I've received no response from them, and I've been locked out three times. After logging back in, I get restricted from activities like liking and commenting, but I can still post. Clearly, the problem lies with liking, commenting, and similar activities, but not with posting.
 
It is possible that some activities on your account have been flagged by Facebook as unusual or suspicious, leading to account restrictions to protect your personal information and prevent misuse. Try changing your password and setting up two-factor authentication to secure your account and see if this resolves the issue.

I attempted both options.
 
Please try using another account and see how it goes. Facebook can be challenging to navigate at times.
 
The issue seems to be with that account. Could you please pause activities on it temporarily?

I haven't been active for a while. I only use this account to manage my page and ads. I'm really not sure what's going on here.

I’ve already addressed this above. I reviewed my login activity, and that’s not the issue.
