⚠️ **Fellow Digital Marketers, Listen Up — Especially If You're Running Facebook Ads**
Just a quick heads-up that might save your business, your login, and your sanity 👇
If you're new to Facebook ads (or even if you’re not), watch out for **fake emails and messages pretending to be from Meta**. I recently received a series of “compliance warnings” that looked official — but they were sent from **Gmail addresses** and loaded with scare tactics like:
> “Your account has violated IP policy and will be deleted permanently.”
Turns out... **they were scammers.**
Trying to steal access to my ad account and page.
**Disgusting.**
✅ Here’s how to protect yourself:
* **Never click** links from emails that aren’t from `.com` or `.com`
* **Enable 2FA** (two-factor authentication)
* **Check who has access** to your Business Manager & payment methods
* **Don’t panic** — real Meta messages are never aggressive or immediate
If you ever get hit with something like this, **don’t respond** — investigate.
I caught it in time and secured everything, but many others don’t. So if you're just getting started with Facebook ads, especially with AI and affiliate marketing, **stay alert**.
Let’s outsmart the scammers — and keep building honest digital businesses the right way 💪
