You can't delete accounts. Only deactivate them. But if you ever log in again it all comes back up as it was before you deactivated it,

This was a huge problem for my wife because her deactivated account got hacked and then myself and all of her friends and family started getting spam.

Is that a new thing? I didn’t see that option when we looked and I seem to recall it was a common complaint at that time too. I wonder if that’s come about because of GDPR?

Anyhow, it’s handy to know it is there so thank you.
