What if I did click it already?
I have received and clicked but no personal info given
I was trying to remove it from my messenger and when I did it ended up opening. What should I do?
Thank you so much sure is nice when someone goes out of their way to tell you when you are being scammed especially when it seems to be one of the big companies that everyone knows!
How do I remove this from my messenger
Lightly highlight the link then look for the remove button on your messenger screen
But people are so greedy and so gullible, they are willing to believe anything. I cant count the times I've tried to warn people from spreading this kind of thing on their pages and the same foolish responses of "What if it's real" or "doesnt hurt to try" and then the crying about their hacked computers.
If the link isnt amazon.com, you would have to be an idiot to believe it is real
I wish these where taken off of Facebook page
