It'll be useful to see if more people start reporting the same thing as that sould make it clear whether this a wider rolout just affecting certain account. I haven't run into this my account yet.

Yeah, Meta is pushing identity verification much harder now, but it's not rolled out to 100% of accounts yet. They're mostly targeting accounts with suspicious activity, weak IP history, or unverified phone numbers.
For groups, admins can also enable strict member requirements

Yes, facebook is increasing security checks and may request phone or ID Verification. However, there is no official mandatory KYC policy for all users. These prompts are typically triggered by anti-spam systems, AI moderation, or specific group settings.Anyone got this? I've heard rumors that we need to use KYC for facebook. Is this the beginning?

Yes, Facebook's algorithm has recently been stepping up its efforts to verify the identities of accounts showing unusual activity. I think it will become even stricter from now on.

I haven't encountered this situation yet, but I think this requirement will sooner or later be rolled out to all accounts.
