Watch out for scammers on your Facebook page ads!
Hi all,
Be very carefull to click on any links from messages to your Facebook business page, if you would buy any ads!
I just tried to place an ad for 15 bucks, to test it out, and luckily it will only run about a week, because I get constant messages like this from fake profiles ( I didn't know it was THIS bad ):

Thanks for the heads up, Lizzy.😎
Ads are great idea. You might give Google and Bing PPC search ads a try.

That is one reason why I am not on the platform at all. Its known as “fakebook” because its always a place for scammers to lurk there and weasel in like a snake. I would never use it even for online business. Too many fakers there. Its been going on for years after it opened to the wide public globally before it was just for college students when I signed on. Now I will never ever use it again they can never get rid of scammers lurking there tons of fake profile pages too. Not worth wasting my time there.
Pinterest No, Facebook no, tiktok no, I' ll call you Brenda No from now on hahahaha! ( didn't mean this malociuous, I get it ) . I only hate Reddit lol!

I was getting those copyright emails and started reporting them when I started getting them in my DMs. I reported these emails to Facebook so many times. I stopped reporting them, but I noticed I only ever get them when I run ads. For me personally the quality of the traffic I was getting was definitely not worth this headache.
Thanks for the reminder, Lizzy!
No problem! Yeah, exactly what I'm thinking now!
