Scam using a fake profile? This way you will avoid being stung

by time news

What can be done – how will you identify a fake profile? In fact, this is not a particularly challenging task: – Examine the profile picture – a picture that looks too professional, or where the photographed object looks amazing, should light a red light for you. We also looked at the list of members – a small number of members, can already indicate a lack of authenticity, today almost everyone has several hundred members. Note, even if you saw that you have a mutual friend, it does not mean that the situation is indeed certain, it is possible that your friend also fell into the trap.

In addition, you can see if the members of the profile are Israelis or people from around the world. If the profile speaks to you in Hebrew and most of his friends are actually international, it is possible that this may be suspicious. Next, we examined the activity in the past – a profile established only in the last week casts doubt on its reliability. Then we examined the content – a profile where most of the content is based on advertisements or marketing content, apparently set up for these purposes only. Be especially wary of profiles impersonating very attractive women with very tempting offers.
