Meta, Faacebook, Instagram: Criminal Fraud & Revenue

Are There No Laws?

Meta faces calls for Congress to probe scam ads targeting seniors

Retirement groups said seniors have lost millions of dollars while Meta profits from the ads.

The letter’s demands follow a report published last month by the Center for Countering Digital Hate, a nonprofit advocacy group, which alleged that Meta has profited by leaving up fraudulent ads, many of which target Medicare recipients.

[...]

It’s not the first time Meta has faced scrutiny over the scams: Sens. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) and Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) urged the Federal Trade Commission and the Securities Exchange Commission to open an investigation into the company in November after Reuters reported that Meta in internal documents projected 10 percent of its 2024 revenue would come from fraudulent ads. And in February, a group of bipartisan lawmakers pressed Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg over its plans to prevent and combat fraud on its platforms.

Reps. Dan Meuser (R-Pa.) and Lou Correa (D-Calif.) also introduced bipartisan legislation earlier this year to combat predatory scam ads.

Any damn day now, Congress. Don't let me stop you. Or do the millionaire jerks "representing" us just want us all to die immediately?

In conclusion, Zuckerberg & his cronies are criminal scum. Lock 'em up, throw away the key, & give all of Meta's filthy money back to the people!
