The facebook team have provided the option to filter all the spam messages from the spammers but at times some of the non abusive spam messages are blocked by this filter. How ever the abusive spam have no path to enter into the users page.

Also the suspected link, app can be reported to the facebook team so that they investigate to find the head.
The other common technique used to send spam messages is by making the users to click on them to agree without their knowledge. This is made possible by hiding the accept button by placing other common play button in a player or view button at the bottom of the picture, that whole content will be a fake one which attract the users to ‘just a click’ on that icon to receive all spam app to activate. This technique is called as “clickjacking” also called “likejacking
To prevent this likejacking there are few tools available to filter and protect user from the abusive spam. The Zscalar has developed a tool which reveals the hidden click to the user so that the user is notified about the spam. Now the user can go ahead to block and report this to facebook team as well.
