OK people! This is a serious post I have started and want shared around FB. Over the past couple of days I have received over 70 separate spam messages from users who are not on my friends list all saying the same thing. They all say about earning so much money an hour then the person who started the message leaves the conversation. The messages are sent to around 390 people a time. I have spent the past couple of days working this thing out..... I noticed that if I left the conversation, I almost instantly received some more new messages. I also noticed one account that was popping up in over 80% of them, and this account would start one off when it all had been quiet for a little while. One of my friends on here started getting them as much as me and through chatting to each other and my detective work we have figured out this much! **It IS a hack, but your account is not hacked. No one has your information or password. I tried changing everything at first thinking it was my account, but it did not make a difference. **The profile I mentioned that crops up ALL of the time? It is under the name Phil Lin Good. He claims to be a hacker specifically aimed at FB and promotes how to earn money through his site! Look at his timeline, he sits writing scripts etc specifically for FB and he is continually advertising how to make money through his site. If you go WAAAAY back on his timeline, you can see he finds it amusing to hack into FB and make spam bots......ringing any bells? I BLOCKED him and have had no more messages since. **With me and my friend chatting, I discovered that leaving the bulk conversation actually provokes your account into sending the EXACT same spam message out then instantly leaving it so you do not know about it at all. Anyone who has been included on these messages will have their account sending them out too! **************DO NOT LEAVE THE CONVERSATION!************* Archive the message from your inbox and then from the archive section just delete the conversation. **Report to FB that your account has been sending out spam messages without your knowledge. I have done this and also sent a copy of this message to FB saying I want this to go viral across here because of the hassle this has caused me. I had to delete FB from my phone, ripped off all unused apps on FB, changed my username, email, passwords, privacy settings before I discovered how to solve this. Perfect timing, just had it confirmed from my friend that she followed my simple steps, and guess what? NO MORE MESSAGES!! Share and like people! This hack is for real and I do not want my friends or family getting it. Louise!
