I've just received a 24 hour ban (for the 2nd time) on Facebook! Why? There was an obvious scammer in one of the buying and selling groups I belong to. I called him out and told him he was a scammy twat. But I get the ban because "Your comment didn't follow our Community Standards on harassment and bullying." But someone can get away with trying to scam people out of hundreds of pounds?? Will I miss Facebook? Will I bollocks!
Haven’t had Facebook for about 2-3 years. Life is so much better without it.
There are also people who pose as landlords on property pages/groups who come up with scams.
“My <insert relation> has died, so I’m not around, therefore the house isn’t available for viewing. You can go and look through the windows, if you’re interested you can send me the deposit and I’ll post the keys”.
Surprisingly a lot of people fall hook, line and sinker for it.
