Fake profiles
A friend's face, a brand logo, or a famous person. Judge the request.
“Fake profiles” is a CyberPlay video course of about 6 minutes, included with Individual Plus. A guide explains the topic and the video stops for five questions.
You will be able to judge a request from a profile that looks like a friend, a brand, a famous person or an official, instead of trusting the photo or the badge. You will also know how to check, report and recover if you already replied.
