 <p>The MDES has sent a letter requesting Meta [formerly Facebook] to take action and resolve the issue.&nbsp;The ministry is gathering more evidence against the 5,301 <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Scam" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/scam.html">Scam</a> <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="ads" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/ads.html">ads</a>.
