Blacklisted or Identity Theft?

About 2 months ago I attended my niece's funeral whom was killed by an (alleged) drunk driver. This was the first time I visited the majority of my family in 7 years. My sister and nephew started a memorial page for my niece. I was amazed at the kind and wonderful responses they sent to her "group". For nearly the week I visited, there were around 500 posting from her schoolmates, long lost relatives and friends. I was urged by my family to join, but when I tried to join, I found out my e-mail address was "disabled". I tried repeatedly to contact Facebook's Help Desk from my home e-mail address and through work, yet I never received an explanation on why my address is disable when I never had an account with them previously. I am totally unimpressed with their "customer service". I was urged by family to create a new e-mail address and try starting a Facebook page again... it worked and I'm now communicating with my family. My main worry is why was my e-mail address "disabled" in the first place? Is it being used by someone else nefariously? Is someone defaming me without my knowledge? Serious concerns that I need answers to. Since I never received previously a "Sign-up Notification" that should warn me that someone was using my address, I believe there is some serious glitches with Facebook that need to be looked into. Hope I can get some answers. If anyone had a similar experience, I'd like to know.
