Now here is another article about knowing a fake facebook account.
1. Look for photos in the profile.If there is only one photo of the
individual in the whole profile it makes it quite clear that the account
is fake.
2. Look for status updates,wall posts and comments. If the user hasn’t
updated a status for quite a long time and hasn’t been involved in any
wall posting or commenting of other statuses,it means that the profile
is likely to be fake.
3. Look at the recent activities. If it is that the user has just been
adding randoms and making new friends,and that there are no pages liked
or groups joined,it suggests that the user is determined in just adding
people and hence the profile is fake.
4. Check out the friend list.If found that maximum of the friends are of
the opposite gender,it can be assumed that the profile is used either
for fun or for random dating.
5. Check the info. If found that there is no ideal links given regarding
school or educational institutions or workplace and that the user is
looking for dating and interested in both men and women,it shows signs
of fakeness.
6. Check the birthdate. Birth dates like 1/1/XX…..or……31/12/XX are
common between fake accounts as it is quite unique and easy to type in.
7. Fake profiles of girls usually have a contact no. in their info. Lets
face it,girls harldy will have their contact no. in public. So watch
out if the user exposes info that is unlikely for general users to
unveil in public.
8. Look out for recent wall posts,if u see loads of people
asking…’THANKS FOR THE ADD….DO I KNOW YOU’……and yet the posts remains un
answered…it is bound to be a fake one.
9. Look for common tarits used in facebook,like.using applications such
as farmville,pet society etc….and adding siblings. If these traits are
not found among the user,the profile is highly inactive or fake.This
point can’t single
handedly prove the fakeness,however this will be a supporting clue along with other points.
10. If you are quite certain about the profile’s fakeness,and want to be
absolutely sure,try browsing google for some random profile pictues.
Fake profile pictures are usually selected from google and while
browsing through it,you might as well come upon the picture the user
chose for the fake account.
