My (swedish) grandfather keeps falling for these Meta scams. Scrolling through his feed is insane and disgusting. So many ads that mimick OS alerts saying storage is low, insane amounts of AI crap and fake products. I 100% agree with this. Try scrolling through your grandparents’ Instagram or Facebook and see for yourself. It’s obviously _very_ easy for Meta to filter out these scams, but they choose not to.

So he was scammed, I'm assuming he knows that he was, but he keeps falling for them?

What type of scams are these and why hasn't he become insanely paranoid after the first or second time?

Honestly? Just delete his account and say he must have clicked some scam link. Sure its manipulative, but at this point what can you actually do to protect them?
