Fake Giveaway Account Check

Giveaway scams copy your identity to pressure followers into urgent actions, fees, or wallet transfers. This check helps you confirm account legitimacy before audience harm spreads.

What You Can Confirm

  • • Classify giveaway accounts as official, suspicious, or fraudulent.
  • • Identify scam triggers before followers lose money.
  • • Provide clear evidence for moderation reports.

Common Risk Signals

  • • Account requests payment to claim a prize.
  • • Giveaway post lacks links from your official channels.
  • • Username closely mimics your main profile with subtle changes.

Evidence to Save

  • • Screenshots of giveaway claims and payment instructions.
  • • Profile URL plus timestamped copies of scam comments or DMs.
  • • Comparison with your official giveaway announcement channels.

Response Workflow

  1. Confirm whether the giveaway appears on your trusted profiles.
  2. Flag mismatched handles, links, and payment directions.
  3. Capture all scam instructions before account edits occur.
  4. Report impersonation and fraud in platform safety flows.
