Social media was the costliest fraud contact method in 2025 and reported losses increased eightfold since 2020
Reports show that in 2025, people reported losing more money to scams that started on Facebook than on any other social media platform. WhatsApp and Instagram were a distant second and third. In 2025, people reported losing far more money to scams on Facebook alone than they reported losing to text or email scams.
And Facebook lets scammers run rampant with 17+ strikes or more a slap on the wrist at best, because their activities drive up engagement and possible revenue for fraudulent sales made on the platform.
The 17 strikes threshold on FB was for pedophiles grooming children afair. The threshold for scammers is probably a lot lower because that’s a crime affecting people’s finances, and that the Epstein class can relate to.
Ah yeah you’re right, I conflated the 17 strikes thing with the scammers instead of the pedos.
For some reason I can’t find the article anymore now but I remember reading that Facebook was very lenient on scam accounts because it was still making them money indirectly through engagement and scam sales on the platform.
The Epstein class cares very much if financial crimes directly affect their money, that’s true, but they have zero empathy when it happens to The Poors.
The most useless responses to shit I tried reporting. Like, “This content does not go against the rules.”
reddit,youtube, fb all have that response when you report people for obvious spamming and botting.
I haven’t been on faceburp in ages, but I remember the comment sections of many groups just being overrun with spam.
Oh, he just wants to do shots all night!
checks notes
…oh, sorry. He just GETS shot all night! Sorry for the confusion.
Not even that. As always, it’s the lowly grunts that literally take the bullet for the pedo-in-chief while he walks free.
