Delete All Facebook Messages at once

—
Over the past month, 2 of my Facebook friends have had their accounts hacked (that I understand of). In both of these cases, the hacker opted to go through the person's Facebook emails to check out all of their messages then use that info to message their good friends-- impersonating them.
