very strange thing happened today, I received an email from FB saying
"Hi, the FB account associated with [EMAIL="email@email.balhbalh"]email@email.balhbalh[/EMAIL] was reactivated by a recent login to the application FB for Android"
I received the email at 4am
when I woke up this morning to read that email I thought that's strange as I thought I deleted my FB account about 5 years ago.
Anyhow I logged back into the account (after verifying some pictures), and resetting my password. Thereafter I clicked permanently delete account (after looking on YouTube how to do it).
I've got a few questions:
Q1) Does anyone know if a deleted FB account from 5 years ago is actually deleted (seems not), or has my account just sat there dormant?
Q2) what is "FB for Android" (is this FB on a mobile phone) or can android also mean on a laptop

I have a tendency to mute most posts so if your expecting me to respond you might be waiting along time!

Android means any device running the Android operating system. Usually phones but can also be a tablet, possibly also a TV box or "Smart" TV if it is based on Android. So FB for Android means the FB app running on such a device.0
