Facebook Rules, I follow

Image by Gemini and improved a bit by ChatGPT:

 


First, my three strikes you're out rule:

  • First, I tell folks no when it comes to volunteering or giving money.  I remind them not to continue the topic, or I will unfriend them.
  • If they continue a second time, I remind them of my unfriend rule.
  • If they continue a third time, I unfriend them.
Why?

“Here’s my position on Facebook money requests. Facebook itself strongly advises against sending money to individuals, and I receive dozens of requests every month. There’s no reliable way to tell which ones are genuine and which are scams. I already support my own U.S. church and its charities, and I’m not wealthy. My financial commitments stay local, and all contributions go through verified, tax‑deductible organizations. I also use my own local investment advisors and do not need outside offers.  

Don't ask me to communicate outside Facebook Messenger; use WhatsApp, Telegram, or Signal instead.  Messenger is encrypted and can do everything these other apps can do. And I only want to text on Messenger

If you need fundraising support, you can create a page on GoFundMe, | The #1 Crowdfunding and Fundraising Platform. Churches can also broadcast services on Facebook or YouTube and request donations there. And for general help or information, people can use free AI tools like Copilot, ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Qwen, DeepSeek, Grok, Mistral, or Meta.”

Now on to volunteering with this advice to me from Copilot AI:

"Most “foreign ministries” contacting random lay Christians on Facebook aren’t real ministries at all. They’re usually (1) scam operations seeking money, (2) engagement‑bait pages trying to grow influence, or (3) troll‑farm religious pages that look Christian but aren’t run by Christians. The pattern you’re describing matches these documented behaviors extremely closely. "
