A question on Facebook messages?
Facebook recently added the privacy shortcuts, where it now seems that you can only choose basic or strict filtering for who can message you on Facebook. Basic filtering's description is, "Mostly friends and people you may know". Does this mean that people who were once your friends but who you have deleted can still message on you Facebook, or is it just for friends of friends?
Is there any way that I can change the messaging settings so that everyone can message me, because I can't seem to find an option for it. Thank you. Ads |

From what I've noticed, the "people you may know" feature can show you people that you have no mutual friends with. People have shown up on that list for me and I literally have no idea who they are or where they came from. So I would say yes, that even people that you don't have mutual friends with can message you.
I think if you set the setting to public or something, it can allow anyone to message you. Ads |

Filtering?
You can change your filter preferences right from your inbox. https://www.facebook.com/help/116215745206219 Basic Filtering If you select Basic Filtering, you'll see mostly messages from friends and people you may know (ex: friends of friends) in your inbox. Typically, messages from other people will go to your Other folder, and you won't receive a notification about them. Strict Filtering If you select Strict Filtering, you'll see mostly messages from friends in your inbox. Some messages from people you want to hear from may go to your Other folder. Whichever filter you choose, you may sometimes get messages in your inbox from people you're not connected to. Some examples of when these messages may go to your inbox are: A friend of a friend includes you in a message along with some of your mutual friends A member of a group you're in messages you or includes you in a message A friend who isn't on Facebook uses your contact info to send you a message from the Facebook Messenger app Additionally, someone you're not connected to on Facebook may pay to ensure their message is routed to your inbox instead of your Other folder. |
