When are Facebook going to protect the Pensioner’s and low income earners from scam adds on its platform. There site has that many adverts for articles that attract the low income earners that are all fake how do these sites get on the platform they pay Facebook. Therefore Facebook should be held responsible for all the losses people have incurred from these SCAM adds. Maybe a law firm could start a class action against Facebook who continue to Let these adds on thier platform for all the people who have lost or stolen money to these adds. This article will probably get booted so copy and paste it and share it to all that could end up victims.

View the updated world u-21 rankings
The 11-time world champion and current world number two came into the tournament on the back of a surprise last 16 exit at last month’s UK Women’s Championship, but it was to be a different story at De Maxx club in Neerpelt as she dropped just one frame on her way to the title.
Following victories against Caty Dehaene and Ho Yee Ki, she then avenged her defeat to Rebecca Kenna in Leeds with a dominant 4-0 victory against the world number three in the semi-finals.
For the second time in 2018 it was not long-time rival Ng On Yee who would await her in the final, but instead Thailand’s Nutcharut Wongharuthai who once again underlined her credentials as a star of the future this weekend.
Following her progress through the group stages she stunned reigning world champion On Yee with a 3-1 success, before adding the scalps of Emma Parker and home favourite and 12-time EBSA European champion Wendy Jans with a 4-2 semi-final victory.
In a cagey final however it was to be Evans who proved too strong, winning the final three frames from 1-1 to add another ranking title to her already unrivalled CV. Victory also sees Evans significantly close the gap to Ng On Yee at the top of the world rankings ahead of this month’s Australian Women’s Open in Sydney.
For the defeated Wongharuthai she has the consolation of having broken into the world’s top ten for the first time following her final run, a status that few would be surprised to see her retain for some time to come.
SIDE-EVENTS
Despite her unexpected early exit in the main competition the weekend, world number one Ng On Yee would not leave Belgium empty-handed following her success in the Challenge Cup side-event.
A competition open to players who had not reached the quarter-finals of the main competition, the event saw an unusually strong field with four of the world’s top eight players all in action during the final two days.
Following victories against Laura Evans, Diana Schuler and Diana Stateczny, On Yee saw off fellow Hong Kong player Katrina Wan in the final to claim victory.
In the Under-21 competition there was success for England’s Emma Parker who shrugged off the disappointment of losing to Nutcharut Wongharuthai in her first-ever ranking event quarter-final to turn the tables on the Thai player with a 2-0 final victory and win her fourth junior event.
The win also sees Parker achieve a significant milestone as she rises to top spot on the WLBS Under-21 ranking list ahead of Shannon Metcalf for the first time in her career.
Finally there was also victory for India’s Chitra Magimairaj in the Seniors side-event after she defeated Australia’s Judy Dangerfield 3-1 in the final. The success is the first for Magimairaj on the World Women’s Snooker Tour since the 2016 World Championship Seniors competition.
World Ladies Billiards and Snooker extends its thanks to all players and supporters who attended the event, in particular Wendy Jans (and her father Guy) who as the owner of De Maxx was a fantastic host and could not have been more accommodating of the event.
The World Women’s Snooker Tour continues later this month with the inaugural Australian Women’s Open which runs in Sydney on 25-28 October 2018. The deadline for entries remains open until Saturday 13 October – enter HERE at the Australian Billiards and Snooker Council website.

The reigning World Women's Snooker Champion, she is the number one ranked player on the women's tour,[2] and regularly features as a pundit on televised snooker coverage.
As a 16-year-old in 2002, Evans competed in her first women's world championship, reaching the semi-finals.[3] She went on to become the most successful female player in snooker history.[4] She has won a record 12 women's world titles, including ten consecutive victories between 2005 and 2014, surpassing Allison Fisher's previous record of seven world titles.[5] She set further women's records by winning ten UK Women's Snooker Championships,[6] six Eden Masters titles,[4] 58 ranking titles on the women's tour overall,[4] and 90 consecutive victories in women's matches between 2008 and 2011.[4] She was made an MBE in the 2020 Birthday Honours for her services to women's snooker.[7]

Women's snooker
World Ladies Billiards and Snooker/World Women's Snooker
At the age of 16 in 2002, Evans entered her first World Women's Snooker Championship and reached the semifinal, where she was defeated 0–4 by eventual champion Kelly Fisher. In the quarterfinal, Evans had beaten third seed Lynette Horsburgh 4–3.[10][11] She won her first ranking tournament, the Connie Gough Memorial Championship, in 2004. This was the only women's ranking event held in the 2003–04 season, and took place after Fisher, the top player in the rankings, had departed from the circuit to take up playing pool in the United States.[12]
Evans won her first world championship in 2005 with a 6–4 victory over Horsburgh in the final, which featured one frame that was replayed because of a problem with the scoring.[13] She retained the title in 2006 just six weeks before she was due to give birth, defeating Emma Bonney 5–3 in the final. She also won the 2006 WLBSA mixed doubles title, partnering with Mark Allen to beat Sonia Chapman and Matthew Couch 3–0 in the final.[14]
She went on to win ten consecutive WLBSA/World Women's Snooker titles from 2005 to 2014, and claimed the title again in 2016 and 2019. Her total of 12 championship titles is a record, ahead of Allison Fisher's seven.[15][16][17]
Her loss to Maria Catalano at the 2011 Northern Classic brought to an end an unbeaten run of 90 women's snooker matches.[18]
She won the Women's Tour Championship 2019, held at the Crucible Theatre, by beating Nutcharut Wongharuthai in the semifinal and Ng On Yee 1–0 in the final.[19]
International Billiards and Snooker Federation
Evans won the IBSF WWwomen's Snooker Championship in 2004, 2007, and 2008.[20] She did not travel to the 2009 championship in Hyderabad to defend her title as the cost of travelling would have been more than the prize money she could have earned.[21]
European Billiards and Snooker Association
Evans won the EBSA European Snooker Championship in 2007 and 2008.
Professional Main Tour
After winning 61 consecutive women's matches and defeating reigning world champion John Higgins 4–3 at the 2009 Six-red World Championship,[22] Evans was awarded a wildcard on the professional tour for the 2010–11 season, enabling her to enter all ranking events at the qualifying stage. This made her the first woman to play on the main tour since Allison Fisher in 1994–95.[23][24] Evans failed to win a match throughout her season on the tour, suffering 18 consecutive defeats.[25] She entered Q-School, but was unable to qualify for the main tour in the 2011–12 season.
In the 2012–13 season, Evans won enough Q-School matches to earn a "top-up" place in the qualifying rounds for the 2013 Wuxi Classic, competing as an amateur.[26][27] In her qualifying match, she defeated Thepchaiya Un-Nooh from Thailand 5–4 to become the first woman to reach the final stages of a ranking snooker tournament.[28] Originally scheduled to play world No. 2, Neil Robertson, in the last 64, she then became one of four players selected to play an extra wildcard round against local Chinese opponents. She traveled to Wuxi and played Chinese teenager Zhu Yinghui in the wildcard round, but lost 2–5.[29]
In March 2015, Evans was awarded a place in the qualifying rounds of the 2015 World Snooker Championship.[30] She lost her opening match 8–10 to 1997 world champion Ken Doherty.[31]
2017 Paul Hunter Classic
In the qualifying rounds for the 2017 World Snooker Championship, Evans defeated Robin Hull 10–8 in the first round. She stated that the victory was the best of her career, against an opponent she called "amazing".[32] She lost 6–10 to Lee Walker in the second round of qualifying. In the next four world championships, she lost in the first qualifying round each year, 7–10 to Dominic Dale in 2018, 2–10 to Zhang Yong in 2019, 3–6 to Andy Hicks in 2020, and 2–6 to Hicks in 2021.[33][34]
In the 2019 Champion of Champions tournament, Evans became the first female player to compete in the event. She lost 3–4 to Shaun Murphy in the first round, after coming back from 0–3 down to force a deciding frame.[35]
On International Women's Day in 2021, World Snooker announced that Evans and Ng On-yee, the top-two players in the women's world rankings, would receive two-year invitational tour cards to commence in the 2021–22 snooker season.[36] Evans failed to progress from the first group stage of the Championship League, finishing bottom of Group 3. In the first round of the British Open, she faced Mark Allen.[37] Although Evans took a 2–1 lead and led 60–22 in the fourth frame, Allen came back to win 3–2.[38]
Personal life
Born in Dudley, West Midlands, Evans was educated at Bishop Milner Catholic School, Dudley.[39] She began playing snooker at age 13, inspired by her older brothers.[27] In 2005, she began a relationship with Northern Irish professional snooker player Mark Allen, with whom she had a daughter, Lauren, born in 2006.[40] Evans and Allen ended their relationship in 2008.
