Facebook suspended me
No kidding
Facebook suspended me. My page is blocked. 12 years of work gone. 3.2 followers gone. All memories, pictures and stories of my macaron shop gone.
Suspicious message
One day after Valentine’s Day I received a message from a woman named Paulina Kostrzewa who claimed to work for Meta. Her profile picture was a cow.
was it spam or real?
She wrote that my page was on the list to new removed because I violated their trademark. I wanted to share this message, to figure out if it was real or fake. The moment I posted it, Facebook removed it. Immediately after they blocked my page.
Review
The message said that if I didn’t agree with their decision I can ask for a review. I had to click on a suspicious link. Which to me was a scam. I did click it and my Mac protected me from opening the page. It was dangerous, said the pop-up.
Facebook blocked me. But of course I did ask for a review. Now it’s a waiting game.
The message
Judge for yourself if this message is real or not. It’s pretty much threatning language. I removed the link. Facebook suspended me:

What now?
I’m counting on it that I won’t get my Facebook page back. Am I gone then? Nooo. You can still find me on Instagram, YouTube and Tiktok. Hopefully see you there. Maybe this was a message from the universe?
Find me anywhere @poptasi 🙂
