I have a Facebook private group and also the public group.

Unfortunately when you have been doing this for years there are going to be copycats that want to steal other group’s traffic instead of building up their own. 

As you can see my group is the six one down.  I don’t pay to have Facebook sponsor and show my group first or have ads.

I’m using “The” and in this example my group has the white background (sometimes it has the Iris flower).  So far the copycats are not using “The” in front of the name. 

Plus because I’m already a member it states “Visit” not “Join”. 

Please be carefully with these copycats.  I’m so sorry because anyone that would use another groups name is definitely not to be trusted.  There are so many scammers and hackers online. 

I tried to get Facebook to stop them but they don’t have name restrictions like Google does.

Sincerely, Mary Francis
