‼️ This is important for ALL FACEBOOK USERS.
It has come to our attention that there is a rising number of scam messages circulating on Facebook, targeting page admins more specifically, but also the average Facebook user like you. They change the message accordingly. These messages falsely claim to be from Facebook support and threaten the permanent deletion of your page due to alleged trademark infringements. With the general population they use other methods. The general rule is, do not click on links unless you know it's safe.
🔍 Here's an example of the scam message:
"Dear Admin,
Your page will be permanently deleted due to a post that infringes our trademark rights... [Followed by a malicious link]"
⚠️ PLEASE NOTE:
1️⃣ Facebook does not communicate through such messages threatening page deletion.
2️⃣ The provided link is a potential security threat and may lead to hacking attempts.
❗️ ACTION STEPS:
DO NOT CLICK THE LINK: Clicking on the provided link may compromise your account and data.
REPORT THE MESSAGE: Use Facebook's reporting tools to flag and report the scam message.
SHARE THIS WARNING: Spread the word to fellow page admins and members to ensure everyone stays safe.
🚫 Always verify messages directly through the official Facebook support channels. If in doubt, reach out to Facebook's support independently.
Remember, your online safety should be a top priority. Stay vigilant and protect yourself from online scams.
Thank you,
