So you either buy their overpriced crappy products just for the deal or you basica…

LPT make your Facebook “let others see you your friends are” hidden/private to anyone on Facebook so the scam artists can’t replicate your profile and add all your existing friends in an attempt to scam them. It’s within the security settings. I am frequently having fake profiles of friends I already have on Facebook attempt to add me.

Multiple visits until it drained my $70 ad budget. Has anyone …
