This really isn't true. Remember that FB has many, many users and (presumably) many, many scammers, so one would expect to see lots of scams.
I too get those (messages lately) friend requests, and almost always by the time I read the message the account has been deactivated (when it says FB user).
So, overall, I think they're doing a reasonably good job on this particular problem.
- kabes 5y agoMy experience is different. I have many times reported a profile like this. Exactly as described above, a child can see it's a scam account. And then a couple of days later got message that after review the profile doesn't violate the community standards.
- disgruntledphd2 5y agoreally? That's very odd (not that their reporting system sucks, it definitely does), but that you need to report it. Interesting that we have such different experiences, I wonder why that is. (remember that on FB, a 1 in a million event occurs approximately 3k times per day).
