Social media has long been a favorite haunt of scammers. In this new phishing scam, con art- ists are going after busi- nesses and individuals with verified accounts - a measure that was sup- posed to help prevent scams! The Better Business Bureau explains how the scam works: You receive a direct message or email that appears to come di- rectly from Twitter, Insta- gram, or another social media platform. It states that your verified account has been flagged, and you'll need to re-verify it. You could allegedly lose your verified ac- count badge if you don't respond. For example, some Twitter users have reported receiving direct messages or emails stat- ing that their blue verified badge has been marked as spam and, if they don't appeal the decision, it will be deleted. The scam message asks you to click on a link or download a form to start the appeal pro- cess and re-verify your account. If you click, you may download malware onto your laptop or mobile device. This can collect your personal data with- out your knowledge. If you fill out forms or reply with the requested information, scammers may be able to hack your account or use your personal information to commit identity theft. How to avoid social media scams: • Understand how social media platforms work. Get to know a so- cial media platform's poli- cies before you start using it. For example, Twitter never sends emails with a request for login cre- dentials, nor do they send emails with attachments. If you are clear on the platform's policies and procedures, you'll be less likely to fall for correspon- dence from a scammer - even if it looks legit. • Be wary of unsolic- ited messages. Whether it's a DM, an email, or a message on a messaging app, be skeptical about out-of-the-blue mes- sages, especially if they ask you to click on links or open attachments. In- stead, go straight to the source - the platform's official customer service center - to find out if the message is real. • Look for the signs of a scam. Poor spelling, bad grammar, pressure to act now, and scare tactics are all red flags that indicate a scam. • Always protect your personal information. Never give your login cre- dentials or other personal information to a stranger without verifying the le- gitimacy of their request. Most reputable compa- nies won't ask you for your login information.
