Don’t Click On ‘Lafayette Terror Attack’ FB Post; It’s Spam
A word of advice as you are scrolling through Facebook: Don't click on the "Lafayette Terror Attack" story, as it is spam.
The cover photo features a Lafayette City Police vehicle in front of the Grand Theater on Johnston Street, which could easily entice locals to click the story.
The story itself is written in a fashion that allows it to have happened in any city, as it doesn't give specifics.
As a matter of fact, on the website's "Recent Posts" section, the EXACT SAME STORY is printed under headlines featuring different cities.
Even Snopes weighed in on the posts. It's all a scam to get advertiser's information in front of your eyes. Do yourself a favor by not clicking on it. If you do click on it, do the rest of us a favor by not sharing it.
