Do you know it?
You have a XING account and didn't visited it for a longer time.
And now you have hundrets of unread messages!

You want to delete them but you need to confirm each deleteation twice oO

For all of you here is a snippet which you can run in the browser console.
The only thing you need is the `xing_csrf_token` token which is stored in the cookies.

When all messages are deleted, you got an alert.
