Facebook scammers: They call themselves Facebook Security, Account Blocking and now Account Warning. But behind the accounts there is a phishing attempt.
Fraudsters on Facebook are creative when it comes to obtaining users' data. Be it a personal message, tagging or sneaking into your friends list.
At the moment, the criminals are trying to act as a security service again by making the user believe that it is an official Facebook security account and that they have been blocked:

Your account has been detected as a fake account and violates our policies. This will result in your account being deactivated. To avoid suspension of your account, we ask you to re-verify your account to prove the official owner of this account.
Please confirm your account here: …
If you are unable to verify your account, your account will be permanently blocked.
Thank you for contributing to improving our security system.
Kind regards,
Facebook Security
What happens if I follow the link?
The scammers create pages and pretend to be Facebook. This goes by many different names, such as account lockout or security team. Facebook Security is particularly popular .
It is then specified that the account is about to be blocked. To avoid this, the account owner should log in again.

The user is lured to a fake Facebook login page via an external link.
If you hand over your data to the criminals , will take over your private profile as well as all associated pages and groups where the victim has admin rights .
So you need to be extremely careful with these fraud attempts!
Note: In the past, however, personal messages have been sent or you have been tagged directly in a photo. No matter how these scammers contact you as a user - under no circumstances follow this link or do NOT enter your data!
