10 Instagram Scams To Look Out For - Page 10
“Is this you?”
Nobody wants their image being used without their consent, and certainly not for illicit purposes. So when a stranger DMs you with a link, surprise-face emojis, and an accompanying message that says “Is this you?! I found these photos of you online! Oh my gosh!” don’t open that link. It is likely a virus that will allow a hacker to get into your account. Never open any link from anyone you don’t know. Even if you are interested, personally, in, eh-em, adult content, go to verified websites that offer this, rather than opening a link a so-called “model” DMs you.
