Why do i have two facebook accounts on my phone ?

[Android Central Question]

I was going through my phone today and noticed I have two facebook accounts , I have only had one for years and one on this phone. Do you know why I have this and what I can do to secure my account

My phone has 2 facebook accounts, one is normal and the other is a sequence of numbers.
I also have a separate Messenger account.
So the numbered account is not Messenger.

I believe the numbered Facebook account is my connected Instagram account.

Welcome to AC , once you uninstall Facebook messenger it goes away, try it yourself.
