How to Fully Delete Facebook Messages

Over the past month 2 of my Facebook close friends have had their accounts hacked (that I know of). In both of these situations the cyberpunk chose to undergo the person's Facebook e-mails to review all of their messages and afterwards make use of that details to message their friends-- posing as them. I was one of those people that each hacker messaged. It was a sobering experience to realize that someone might possibly have access to every one of your personal conversations that you've had with friends and family, going back for many years!

Hereafter experience I chose that I wished to delete every one of my previous Facebook messages so that if I was ever hacked, at the very least I could limit what they would certainly have access to. However I discovered that this wasn't as very easy as you would certainly assume as there is no global "Remove All" choice for Facebook messages and discussions. Rather, you need to click into each discussion, click on the "Actions" button, as well as choose "Erase Discussion". To do this for the numerous conversations that I've had on Facebook over the past a number of years would have been much also time-consuming. Nonetheless, I did locate an incredible plug-in for the Chrome internet browser called Facebook-- Erase All Messages that sufficed.
