Identify fraudulent websites and information pages.

First of all, we need to identify fake information pages on Facebook or fraudulent websites and links. These pages are designed to exploit and steal data or money from users. They can have interfaces and information similar to official pages of organizations and businesses to deceive visitors.

Accessing fraudulent and fake sites poses the risk of financial loss and leakage of important personal information (accounts, passwords, OTP codes). The stolen data can be exploited for blackmail, sold to third parties or used for other illegal activities. Fraudulent and fake sites can also infect your device with malware or viruses, causing the device to be hacked, controlled remotely, causing damage or data loss.

Method 3: Identify phishing websites with AI

Users click on “Page Name”, then “Learn More About This Page” to check the transparency of the page.

Steps to check the transparency of social media accounts

For Facebook information pages that do not have a “blue tick”

User clicks on “About”, scrolls down to find and clicks on “Page Transparency”

Users need to pay attention to the page name change history and the country/region where the page administrator logged in. Most fake accounts are newly created or have recently changed their name and posted advertisements in a short time, and are logged in outside of Vietnam.
