How do I eliminate postings from people I don't know or like on Facebook? - Timo - 07-18-2013 12:20 AM

On my FB page I'm getting some very graphic postings from people I don't know from other countries. Some of the stuff is very violent or sexy pictures. I mean, I cannot "Unlike" the posting because its not "liked" in the first place. I cannot un-follow because i'm not following them at all. Their stuff is in other languages such as Arabic which I don't understand.

What can I do to eliminate this problem? And don't tell me that those posting its base on my search history, cuz I don't search that sick stuff..


Thanks in advance, if no one is able to help I will close down FB.

When it appears in your newsfeed, report it as spam, hide it or delete it.

it only appear in your news feed for two reasons

you have them as friends so you should unfriend them
you like a certain page of them so you need to unlike it

or may be you allowing other persons to post in you wall so change it from your privacy option
and last people can tag you or mention you
you need to change it from your privacy option

that's all the 4 reasons have fun Smile

hover your mouse over the post and a little box with a down arrow should appear on the top right of the post, click it and you should see two options hide and report story or spam, click hide. If you don't know the person you should unfriend the person.
