Here’s The Reason Why You Should Never Type “Amen” On A Facebook Post
By Mike-Ross
What’s wrong with typing “Amen” on Facebook?
Nothing, well, that’s what I originally thought until a friend warned me about what could happen as a result.
We all know someone on Facebook who regularly posts “Amen” on Facebook along with posts like “I know you won’t ’Like’ this photo because I’m sick“ or ”Type ’Amen’ to heal me.“ It doesn’t harm anybody, so why should we avoid doing it ourselves?
We know no life can be spared or saved with a “like” and no illness can be cured by typing ”Amen”. But by doing so you’re showing your support.
Despite your good intent, by doing that you’re very likely to be helping Facebook spammers who want to make some easy money.
These types of manipulative posts are designed to trick and exploit people into liking, sharing, and commenting. This, in turn, results in the page collecting an awful lot of followers.
The creators of the page then spread malicious publicity, viruses, and scams.
They also keep your data and know where you live, your date of birth, and your email. This information could be used to hack your account.
When you share these posts, you’re actually doing real harm by increasing their popularity. Because when this happens, the page owner earns money.
So next time you feel bad for not sharing one of these posts on your wall, keep in mind that your “Like“ and ”Amen” won’t save any lives.
It just helps a bunch of heartless people fill their pockets.
Feel free to SHARE this warning with your friends and family.
