Facebook spamming me?

I created a fake facebook account a long time ago for some reason or other. Possibly contact a company because they spend all day on facebook instead of answering the phone?

I got an email every now and then saying i am missing loads and to come back, the last 2 or 3 days though i have receipt countless trending emails about Madeline and Walthamstow?
I clicked unsubscribe in the emails and yet they continue? Just deleted about 15. Every time i check the emails today there are a load of the same email.

Anyone else getting the same?

Just checked back and there were 112 identical emails in one day...

    I have done that, but wondered if anyone else had suddenly got a ton of identical trending emails?

    Its not an email address i use except for rubbish so i can just ignore everything and delete all email. Just wondered why the same trending email got sent over a hundred times in 2 or 3 days?

    Just checked and no more facebook emails since adding to the spam list, but they continued after unsubscribing which i found odd and they were just generic facebook trending notifications. I used to get a couple a week tops.
