How To Change Who Can Message You On Facebook Messenger

Let's show you how to change who can send you messages through the Facebook Messenger App.
In this video, I walk you through the steps of how to adjust the privacy settings in Facebook Messenger to control who can send you messages directly, or request to message you or not be able to message you at all. Messenger has privacy settings for several different categories such as friends of friends, your followers on Instagram etc. and you can adjust the settings for each category separately. The steps are the same for both iPhone and Android.
I hope this video helped solve your problem. App still not working? If so, drop your question in a comment below!

Hi there. So how do I allow everyone to message me? I only have option Friends of my friends, and people with my phone number. I want everyone bc if I post something on Market place,some buyers end in spam( beside “message request” option. And I don’t see their messages. ☺️ please help

[@ImAmrK]

I am facing the same issue, did you solve it?

[@nathaliek798]

@@ImAmrK no. I did not. I “allowed” anything possible. But still getting message requests! I don’t know how to change it to everyone’s message to reach me. It’s annoying

[@ImAmrK]

@@nathaliek798 I figured it out, go to your privacy setting first then allow everyone to search you on other engines, then refresh your fb, go to messenger, privacy, message delivery then at the end there will be "other people" other on facebook, click on everyone to requests.

I’ve got all the settings set to Don’t Receive message requests but daily I keep getting spam message requests from stupid fake sex accounts… all this has done is ensure my fans can’t message me but yet I still get some Amelia Charles etc sending me links to clearly dodgy sites… I’m fed up with it
