You see a lot on Facebook: notifications, news, messages from friends, and all sorts of messages. However, you won’t see too much spam on Facebook. If you come across an unwanted message every now and then, you can report it to improve Facebook’s spam filter. Marking a message as spam will also remove the offending message from your Facebook Messenger inbox.

If you see a Facebook post that appears to be spam, here's how to report it to Facebook:

Open the message in Facebook Messenger.

Tap the sender's name at the top of the screen.
