How Do I Delete A Spammer's Postings From A Facebook Group?

    I just took over the "Admin" of a Facebook group for a friend.

    I discovered there are many members that spam the group up to 10 times a day with the same or similar ads! (Hint: auto repair, computer repair, satellite installation, etc.)

    I know how to "Ban" them from the group, but how do I delete the HUNDREDS of ads they have posted?? ... or if I can't delete them all, make them invisible to all the other members!

    I tried deleting them-one-by-one, but my arm feels like it's about to fall off!

    Thanks for your answer!

    I have a horrible feeling that you are going to do them one by one.
    Facebook have not even tried to keep pace with the moderation tools that forums have built it which is a disgrace given their market dominance. If they did even a tiny bit more than they do right now I'm sure many forum owners would shut up shop and move to fb groups.

    A quick look a what we need (just incase anyone from fb ever reads this)
    • ability to see all posts by a group member
    • ability to select all/some posts by a group member
    • ability to hide/delete all/some posts by a group member
    • ability to give warnings/strikes/infractions to a group member
    • ability to give limited time bans to a group member
    • ability to see group members by IP address
