Fake profiles

  • It's time to start our February task: creating a fake profile with Fakebook!

    Everyone knows that social media are nowadays very popular for their power to connect people and to meet new friends but with the explosion in social media came an equally rapid expansion of fake profiles.

    How can we detect and discover a fake profile? We will find together some rules that help us to recognize them.

    At first, create a false profile of a person who doesn't exist or doesn't live any more (either a historic or literary figure or a scientist, an artist ...)

    You can use the online tool called Fakebook

    Here you can watch a tutorial

    Then, share your fake profile here.

  • How can you reveal a fake profile? Write some clues here below.

    PAOLA MASTRAPASQUA

    To discover a fake profile,I think it is necessary to read the profile and all its posts well.
    I also believe that after discovering it, it's necessary to report it.

    Giorgio

    They usually are recently opened accounts that have few friends

    Emilie

    The pictures they use, are usually altered versions of images stolen from actual people or organizations.

    MITIKE

    The profile has very few pictures or no actual picture of a person at all.

    Killian

    Little or no contacts in common. When the profile has nothing in common with you such as friends and they are trying to add you, it’s likely for malicious reasons.

    EVAN

    When a profile adds you but once you accept them, there is no more interaction with that user.

    Maria Vittoria

    In Facebook Fake Account, you do not get profile information or it’s misleading so you can easily identify it.

    MARTIN

    If you come across a fake profile on Facebook or other social media, the best thing to do is report it right away.

    Most fake profiles are created to fool someone into something, like money or personal information.
