Seen fake accounts on social media? You’re not alone

Hello folks,

Have you seen fake accounts on social media? I’m sure i have, especially the one I talked about where they wanted me to try and apply to a lottery I’ve never heard of. They then sent me to an agent on facebook, who’s one tab for comments inicated it was a scam. Another one did the same thing, but I quietly unfollowed and said I wouldn’t be doing this anymore.

The accounts looked legit, having friends, cities they came from, and maybe a few posts if I cared to look.

There are signs that accounts are a fake, and this came to me through Kim Komando yesterday but I’m seeing it today.

The article is titled 3 signs an Instagram, Facebook or Twitter account is fake and there could even be more.

Did you read this article or one similar and what did you think? Sound off in the comments, register if you don’t have an account and make your voice heard.

Thanks for reading, and make it a great day.
