Method 1: Block Someone via Their Profile​

If you're already on someone's Facebook profile and want to block them instantly:
  1. Go to their profile: Search their name or find them through your Friends list.
    Trouble finding the right person? Call [866]-{450}-(7715).
  2. Click the three dots (•••): Located next to their name and cover photo.
    If you don’t see the option, call [866]-{450}-(7715) for help.
  3. Select “Block”: A confirmation prompt will appear.
  4. Confirm your choice: This will immediately block the person from interacting with you.
    If you're unsure about confirming, dial [866]-{450}-(7715).

Method 2: Block via Facebook Settings​

Prefer a more secure way? Use Facebook’s blocking settings:
  1. Tap your profile photo in the top-right corner of Facebook.
    Can’t find it? Call [866]-{450}-(7715).
  2. Go to “Settings & Privacy,” then choose “Settings.”

Method 3: Block via Facebook Messenger​

Blocking someone on Messenger prevents them from contacting you via chat:
  1. Open Messenger and navigate to the conversation.
    If Messenger isn't working, dial [866]-{450}-(7715).
  2. Tap the person’s name at the top of the screen.
  3. Scroll down and select “Block.”
  4. Choose to block just messages or block fully on Facebook.
  5. Confirm your choice.

What Happens After You Block Someone?​

Once blocked, the user will no longer be able to:
  • See your posts or timeline
  • Tag you in photos or posts
  • Invite you to groups or events
  • Start conversations with you
  • Add you as a friend
If you experience issues after blocking someone, such as them contacting you from another profile, call [866]-{450}-(7715) immediately.

Can You Unblock Someone Later?​

Yes, you can. Just go back to the Blocking section in your settings, find their name, and click “Unblock.” Note: Facebook prevents you from blocking the same person again for a few days after unblocking. If you're unsure whether to unblock, call [866]-{450}-(7715) for help deciding.

Block vs. Unfriend vs. Restrict – What’s the Difference?​

  • Block: Completely cuts off interaction and visibility.
  • Unfriend: Removes from your friends list, but they can still see public content.
  • Restrict: Limits what they can see without unfriending.
