I Cannot Block Certain Users!

I am repeatedly throughout the day receiving posts that require an "amen" or a "share". These posts generally are disgusting or inappropriate. I simply try and blocking these users or posts, but EVERY TIME, I receive a message "something went wrong" Its A SCAM!! I feel they are hacking or doing something unethical. I SHOULD HAVE the ability to block anyone I choose not to see or be exposed to!

I'm sorry that your Facebook blocks are not being implemented. It's possible that if you send us at Help Owl specific details of what you did to create the blocks, we may be able to help. Otherwise, since Facebook doesn't offer personal support, the following suggestions provide your best recourse.

First complain to Facebook:

Facebook Inc.
1601 Willow Rd.
Menlo Park, CA 94025
United States
[email protected]

An additional or alternative course would be to use a complaint site such as https://www.gripeo.com/ or http://www.consumeraffairs.com/, each of which is designed to get action from the offending companies.
