How to Spot Fake Profiles on Facebook
Protect your online safety
As cyber threats become increasingly sophisticated and online safety grows more critical, it’s important to recognize that even your social media profile is vulnerable. Cybercriminals are now creating fake profiles that look like real Facebook entities, in an attempt to trick unsuspecting page owners into revealing sensitive information.
Picture this: your inbox receives a seemingly urgent message from what appears to be an official social channel. The message claims your business page is on the brink of deletion due to an alleged policy violation. Panic sets in, and a link is provided for you to request a review to rectify the situation.
Beware! The link is nothing more than a trap, designed to steal your account credentials. Falling victim to this trick could open the door to unauthorized access and potential harm to your profile or business.
