Meta Account Hacked - (Facebook and Instagram) - Can't Use Occulus

Posting here since it is impossible to get help from anyone associated with Meta. I just bought an Quest3 and apparently earlier today my Meta account was hacked. Hacker has changed the e-mail and passwords to my Meta, Facebook, and Instagram accounts. I was trying to log-in to set up my Quest and I am completely unable to do anything. How can I get some assistance in recovering my account, so 1. I don't loose 15 years of pictures and memories and 2. so I can actually log in and use this $500 piece of hardware I purchased... It's mind-boggling that it's impossible to get help from Meta on this type of thing considering Meta has over a $1T market cap.

Also, I had to create this Meta account just to be able to post and ask for help since I am currently unable to log in with my 15 year old Meta/FB account... I don't want to link the Quest3 to some new Meta account, I purchased it so I could use it with the account that I have always had. I can look at my Instagram page and see they are in the process of deleting posts as we speak.
