If you've been harassed with messages or unwanted invitations to groups from someone you don't know, first block the person in question. You can prevent spam messages and invitations by blocking people who send them or reviewing your settings.
Attention
- If malicious activity or harm continues, please report it.
- Please consult with the police about any criminal acts (e.g. death threats, illegal sexual encounters, selling drugs, fraud, stalking).
Useful info
- If your legal rights (e.g. copyrights, trademarks, portrait rights) have been infringed, you need to report the rights infringement.
Preventing harassment from friends
If you receive spam messages from a friend, you can stop receiving their messages by blocking them.
Be advised
- If someone you blocked is a member of a group you're in, you'll continue seeing their messages.
