What to do if the page is yours but cannot be accessed
Restore access
If you forgot your password, your account was hacked or blocked, try to renew your rights to it. Lifehacker has already written how to do this. The page can then be deleted using any of the above methods.
Contact Support
If you have created a new profile, instead of restoring access to the old account, you can contact the VKontakte support service and ask to delete it. But this will only work if your real name and surname are indicated in both the new and the old accounts, and your photos are set as avatars.
You can contact support from a computer or smartphone through a special one. Be sure to attach a photo of your passport, driver's license or birth certificate to your application for deletion. In addition, add a second photo with your face in the background of the support contact form.
Is it possible to delete a fake page if there is no access to it?
If someone has created a profile on a social network with your first name, last name, photo or other information, you can report a fake.
Go to the "Help" section from your computer or smartphone and provide through all the information requested. It includes a link to the clone page, a description of the problem, and two photographs of your passport (or other ID) and your face in the background of a support call.
