I accidentally posted a topless picture on Facebook without realising. They took it down after someone reported me for adult solicitation. Now I’m worried about what could happen next. Has anyone been through something like this? What should I do?
That’s tough. Did they report you to anyone outside of Facebook, or was it just removed by them?

From what I can tell, it was just Facebook. They sent me a notification after deleting the post.

You should still check for any messages or warnings in your account. Sometimes they escalate these things.

Good point. I’ll double-check everything just in case. Thanks for the advice .
Maybe reach out to a lawyer just to be safe. Better to cover all your bases.

I’m thinking about it. Do you know how to find one that’s affordable?

Look up local community legal aid services or free advice forums. They might be able to help.

Thanks for the tip. I’ll check those out.
What do they mean by ‘adult solicitation’? I thought Facebook just removes stuff like this without reporting it.

It’s when they think you’re posting something related to certain ‘services.’ Facebook takes it really seriously.

Ah, that makes sense. Facebook has definitely gotten stricter lately.
Can’t you just tell them it was an accident? Stuff like this happens sometimes.

That’s what I’m hoping for. It really was just a mistake.

Facebook might be okay with that, but if law enforcement gets involved, it might be trickier.

Fingers crossed it doesn’t come to that. Thanks for the heads-up.
Next time, just double-check what you’re posting before you hit upload. Happens to the best of us, though.

Trust me, I’ve learned my lesson now, lol.

Or maybe don’t post anything when you’re tired or distracted. That’s when these mistakes happen, lol.
