However, for all the good that can come from being active on social media, there are detractors as well, as scammers have become more and more creative. As people continue to catch on to common schemes, so it\u2019s important to be on guard for suspicious activity.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few scams to look out for, and how to detect them:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Requests from your \u201cfriends\u201d via direct message.\u00a0 <\/strong>Whether or not you use chat or message features on apps like Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, the option is there for you to receive messages from people you follow or are friends with. If you receive a message from someone you know that seems unusual, your suspicions likely aren\u2019t wrong &#8212; scammers have hacked into accounts to send messages seeking money for an \u201cemergency\u201d; in fact, Facebook even has an option in messenger to request funds. If you feel the account messaging you has been compromised, don\u2019t engage &#8212; but reach out later to your friend outside of social media and let them know they may have been hacked.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Clickbait quizzes and apps on Facebook.\u00a0 <\/strong>\u201cClick here to find out your celebrity soulmate!\u201d \u201cShare your photo and we\u2019ll show you your doppelg\u00e4nger!\u201d Do these sound familiar? If you frequently use Facebook, they might &#8212; these apps and quizzes are designed to collect your personal information by appealing to audiences via what is known as \u201cclickbait.\u201d You may not lose money, but you risk having your account and your personal information compromised and shared with scammers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Apps that claim \u201cspying privileges.\u201d\u00a0 <\/strong>If this one doesn\u2019t sound familiar, it\u2019s a good thing. However, this scam &#8212; an app or add-on that claims to let you see who\u2019s viewing your profile &#8212; is dangerous and doesn\u2019t give you the \u201cspying privileges\u201d it claims. In fact, these apps require permission to access your information, and in doing so can allow scammers to message your friends, access your login credentials, and share dangerous links to your profile. A good rule to follow is to not install any app that can work your account without your permission. Additionally, you should consider changing your password every six months for your protection.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; Social media plays a huge role in our society today, with billions of Facebook users, Twitter serving as a tool that can make or break reputations, and other social apps like Instagram and TikTok continuing to define our cultural landscape.
