Since Facebook scams are increasing day by day, PowerAdSpy found it quite important to alert its users to stop and avoid Facebook scams, so that no mishappening takes place.
Online and social media scams have been quite depressing and very harmful for today’s youth. No wonder these scams are increasing at an enormous rate, and people are becoming victims of them every hour. As per a recent survey, PowerAdSpy found that more than 90% of users have been once a victim of online scams. Speaking of it, let’s not forget that social media is also the biggest platform where online scams take place, like Facebook.
Hence, PowerAdSpy finally shared some tips for users to spot and avoid Facebook scams and beware of the same. A majority of scams happen over the Facebook Marketplace, and here’s a quick glance and examples of the same:
- Through fake Facebook profiles, many users get scammed and misled to lose their personal pieces of information. Hence, always keep an eye on the Facebook accounts and never get fooled.
- The vendors who advertise with ‘out-of-stock’ products are the worst.
- The users might notice some unfamiliar payment gateways which look 100% genuine to them. But, there are some uncommon acts to steal a huge amount of bucks from the users.
But, no more worries. Apart from alerting the readers from such treacherous Facebook scams, PowerAdSpy also came up with some meaningful tips to avoid these scams. Let’s begin:
- Whenever a user orders from Facebook business pages, they should never pay in advance and always opt for COD. If the COD option is not available, never go for it.
- Check whether the business profile allows its users to track the package via mail. If not, step back immediately.
- Never share personal information outside Facebook and stick to communicating with the vendor via Facebook only.
- Stay alert if the user notices any frequent changes in the list price of the products or services.
- Immediately block the page or reseller once the user feels any kind of cheating behavior or harassment.
