Question:
How do I stop getting these "you requested a new Facebook password" emails/texts?

Over the past few months, I have been getting about an email a week from Facebook saying that I requested a password reset, but I haven't. I never click the confirmation link, and I do click the "I didn't request this" link (though this doesn't seem to do anything). The links have never asked for my password or anything, and I've checked the full message header and as far as I can tell they are definitely from Facebook. So as far as I can tell, my account is still safe, but these emails are getting kind of annoying. Is there anything I can do about this?
I realize I can use a filter to automatically mark the emails as read, but if I link my phone number with Facebook then I keep getting texts about it as well and I don't know of a way to stop the texts without unlinking my phone number, which I'd rather not do.

Your digital mail account ought to have a characteristic that proclaims some thing like "block sender." Use that to block the guy's digital mail. in case you're turning out to be a lot of unsolicited mail from diverse supplies, you may set your thoughts/filters to delete unsolicited mail immediately, yet that should on occasion do away with some thing which you particularly choose. As a final hotel, open up a sparkling digital mail account, and basically provide that digital mail handle to trusted friends. do not use that digital mail handle while filling out varieties on web content, because of the fact lots of those places re-sell their digital mail lists to spammers.
