Unfortunately I was able to confirm that there was indeed a 1:1 copy of a Facebook page uploaded to the account; this is why it was marked as a phishing suspension ("masquerading as a legitimate entity") - Facebook doesn't allow people to take 1:1 copies of their pages and use them elsewhere. Because of this, we cannot lift the suspension."

so now what do i do .... if anyone would bother and look, it was my own FB page - i just wanted a quick copy of some code to see if my FTP problem was still occuring. if you'll look at my previous support ticket, you'd see i had had problems there, too.

any comments or support now? i can't make a ticket anymore b/c of the suspension.

Because the suspension is permanent for all the reasons I detailed in your ticket. Facebook doesn't allow people to take 1:1 copies of their pages and use them elsewhere - that's theft of their template, logos, and masquerades as a legitimate entity, which is what phishing is indeed defined as. It doesn't matter if it was your own FB page or not; the fact of the matter is it's Facebook's property which was stolen (your content you posted is yours, however it's their template, logos, and images which is the subject of the matter here), which is Copyright Infringement and Phishing/Masquerading as a Legitimate Entity, and why it's permanent.

I'm not positive why the system's not allowing you to make another ticket as it's not showing tickets to be blocked, but I can confirm this is not a discussion to be had in the Feedback/Suggestions forum; as such the topic is now locked.
