Clickbait - be careful where you click 3. “Friendly” cash requests - always check with the friend in person 4. Short URLs - while helpful, it’s hard to tell where they came from 5. Strange friend requests - if you don’t know them, they’re really not your ‘friend’ 6. Double friend requests - it’s fake, don’t accept it 7. Fake Emergencies - check your account status directly, not through a provided link
