I admin a decent sized facebook group, at 10.8k members currently.
Luckily, the facebook group is specifically for people living in a certain geographical area. As such, I am able to make questions, only somebody living in the area would know.
You would be surprised, there are LOTS of spammers who answer all of the questions. (Just- getting the wrong answer on the area-specific questions)
Duct-cleaning spam has been a real problem. lmao.

Honestly- I am surprised to find as much spam/scam/etc… on a facebook group whose purpose is… well, related to a small area in a midwestern town…
Also- I constantly regret taking on moderation and administration of this group. Moderating facebook sucks. :-/
10k is a lot, very juicy target for spammers.
