Don’t fall for these five scams

Who seen my profile scam?

There are plenty of websites out there that make the false claim that they can show you exactly who has search for you on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and other popular social media sites however, these sites don’t have the abilities as a social media sites themselves do not reveal this information to anyone. You can visit social media page and look at anything. They have publicly posted and that person will never know that you have ever been to their profile.

No website or app (application) can do this. The only way that you can find out if somebody has been to your Facebook profile is if they like, share something public, make a comment on your profile, send a message, follow you or send a friend request.

LinkedIn along with TikTok are the only exceptions where they will notify the person that you been to their profile. For LinkedIn, this is a paid feature, for TikTok it is sent via TikTok’s internal notification system. Of course, if you are logged out, they won’t know, but you will be limited on the information available to you. Even though these two websites are the exception still no website or app has the ability to tell you or anyone. Do not call for the scam.

Private pictures scam

Next on our list of scams is websites and apps that make the false claim that they can show you profile pictures that are “marked private” of any users or even users who you are friends with following, the reality is this is not true. If the person has marked their account, private non-signed users and users who are not friends or have been approved will not be able to see anything that is private. Even if you are friends or you are an approved follower if the person has marked a specific photo PRIVATE so only they will be able to see it. No one else would be able to access it unless they change the privacy settings. Don’t fall for this type of scam. No website or app has ability to see anything that is marked private.

The respective website that locked you out of your account or suspended you, only employees of the respective social media site can unblock your account or unsuspended your account by going through the appropriate and official channels.
