How it works
A fake profile may use a familiar company name and invite you to a private chat. A profit or licence screenshot does not authenticate the person.
What to check and do
- Verify the contact’s connection to the company through its official website, not the promotional chat.
- Do not give portal access to an “analyst” in a messenger.
- Before a requested payment, independently verify its purpose and recipient with your provider.
Learning scenario
Learning example: an unfamiliar branded profile asks for your password to “configure a strategy”.
Self-check
