Small Humane group taken by scammers

https://www.oregonlive.com/crime/2024/08/facebook-scam-leaves-humane-society-in-the-dalles-paralyzed-as-meta-does-nothing.html

Dalles Humane group taken by scammers. Facebook refuses to help. Scammers post fake animals and collect money. Meanwhile the Dalles Humane group can't use their Facebook page for fundraising or animal rescue.

7. Someone took over my dead brother's FB page

Earlier this year. He died 14 years ago, and I used to look at his page every once in a while since we were FB friends. This person first changed all of his pictures and then his biographical information and finally, after I posted on his page complaining about what they did, they unfriended me.

Seeing his information go was a little bit like losing him all over again.

Facebook did NOTHING.
