🚨 WARNING: Facebook Scam Ads 🚨Please read and share — especially if you or someone you know shops online via Facebook ads.I’ve been caught out TWICE now by fraudulent companies advertising on Facebook, and it’s shocking that Meta (Facebook) allows this to continue with no accountability.❌ 1st Scam: Fake “Sports Direct” AdI purchased a pair of shoes advertised under the guise of Sports Direct for £19.99. The site looked genuine — but it wasn’t.I never received the shoes. After getting no response from the seller, I had to go through my credit card company for a refund.I reported the scam to Facebook asking for the ad to be removed. They ignored me.❌ 2nd Scam: SunEveryDay.This site pretends to be a UK-based store, but it’s actually a Chinese-run operation.Again, I was charged for products that never arrived. No working customer support, fake tracking — a complete scam.I had to go through my bank to try and recover the money. And yet, Facebook still lets them advertise.⸻📢 Why is Facebook enabling this?Are they paid to host these ads without verifying the companies? Are they turning a blind eye to the hundreds of similar complaints?💬 Meta must be held accountable for letting overseas scammers exploit UK consumers with zero oversight. I’ve had to chase banks and credit card companies just to recover MY OWN money, all because Facebook hosts shady advertisers.⸻Advice to others:✅ Be very cautious buying through Facebook ads✅ Look up the company on Trustpilot or do a reverse image search of product photos✅ If it looks too good to be true — it probably is✅ Use a credit card for purchases so you’re protected✅ Report scam ads persistently — even if Facebook doesn’t act⸻Let’s push back.Share this and tag Facebook/Meta. The more people speak up, the harder it becomes for these scams to thrive unchecked
