How to Get Rid of Spam Posts in Facebook Groups – Simple way

Facebook has evolved massively from the last couple of years. They have been very strict about the application spams, link spams and manual spams. They took over as many spam links as possible in very less time. But one thing which Facebook is unable to control is the manual spam links, which are later generated by bots to take control on. So if you click on these spam links, the links will automatically generate a spam loop by posting a status in all your Facebook groups. This is really annoying to the admin who is taking care of that group.

Steps to Stop Spam Links in Facebook Groups:

There are many group admins in Facebook, who literally ban you from their groups after seeing your spam post. This is really annoying for admins, as well as the normal Facebook users. If you are an admin of any Facebook group, try following the simple steps to avoid Facebook spam messages in future. This simple method will save your time on deleting all those spammy links posted by your group members.
Step 1: Log into your Facebook account and open the group you wanted to moderate.
Step 2: Click on the Edit Group Settings option to open the settings page.
