あらすじ・解説
We’ve all experienced those random friend requests from people we know we’re already friends with. And we also may have gotten a sketchy DM from a friend promoting bitcoin. Both of these are an example of both imposter accounts and a hacker.
In this episode of the podcast, I’m sharing some helpful sight into how to know the difference between the two and most importantly - how to prevent and handle them.
Here’s a synopsis:
-
Imposter accounts
-
actually take your photos
-
tweak your name just a bit (add a space, character or extra letter in the name)
-
Send out friend requests
-
How to handle: Report & Block the account
-
-
Hacking
-
They know your password and have logged into your account.
-
They can send DMs, access your business accounts, ad accounts and groups.
-
It means, you did not set up security on your account.
-
How to handle
-
Change your password
-
Set up two-factor authentication immediately
-
