We got 10,000 facebook likes overnight from people in another country. WHY? How do I get rid of them?

Our facebook page http://www.facebook.com/MobileAttic received more than 10,000 likes over night.  We only had about 250 likes prior to this.

I know this hurts our engagement numbers as well as limits real customers / community from seeing our posts.

Is there any way to get our fans down to a real "non-spammed" number?

Man that stinks, it would be nice to pick up 10,000 legitimate fans that quickly but yeah after checking out your facebook I guess that Turkey probably isn't your target market! Looks like it's Manual Deletion or attempting the automater ultility unfortunately

To add to both Kemp and Chris, If you have a mac running os x, you can use the automater utility.

To add to Kemp you can also try using a macro

It's going to take you a while, but you can do it manually. Go to your admin panel, then on the left side, click "new likes." Then you will see a list of people's profiles with a "make administrator tab" and next to that an "x." Click the "x" and it will remove them from your page. Repeat.

that's the best solution I have. Wish I could give you an easier way.

Good luck!
