Facebook Becoming Overpopulated and Is Removing Inactive Accounts

The messages below, which claim Facebook is becoming overpopulated and will delete inactive members, is a hoax. The fake messages which claim Facebook users should send the message to 15 other people in order to prevent Facebook from deleting their account, started circulated on Facebook as far back as 2007. Facebook is NOT deleting inactive accounts due to overcrowding. All the messages do, are to clutter up Facebook users Wall or Timeline with garbage.
