Report Hackers to Facebook

According to the third article of the Safety section in Facebook's Statement of Rights and Responsibilities, willfully compromising a user's account on the social networking constitutes a violation of Facebook's user agreement.

Reporting such violations may be performed in a number of ways, depending on the situation. If either you or your friend's Facebook account has been hacked, file a report through Facebook's Help Center.

If you are aware of a specific user on Facebook who is engaged in hacking other accounts, file a report regarding his activity through his profile page.

My facese book account as been compromised whenever I try to send a in box message I am told that I am sending spam

Good Day!
You were lucky cause you are being warned and stopped from sending email. Most of the time a user of an account is unaware that his/her account is spamming. Spamming means someone manage to get your username and password and uses your account to send unwanted emails to your friend's list. The owner of the account was unaware of the activities on its account and will only know it if one from the friends list informed that she/he is sending emails with links.
And you are still lucky that your account is not yet disabled.

The best and easiest way to fix a victim of spamming is to renew your password.
You can go to
https://www.facebook.com/recover.php (click this link)
Provide your user id or email address. Then, follow the onscreen instruction and at the end it will reset your password.
To regain access to Facebook, try to look first at the inbox on your mail account, for the security code that Facebook sent to you. If security code is not in the inbox, search it at the spam folders.

And if your facebook account is blocked, please go to http://www.facebook.com/help/contact.php?show_form=disabled
(click this link)
fill up the form and click the Submit button.
or

You can write to [email protected], express your interest on recovering your account.
Explain why your account should not be disabled.
