Whatever big name social media, like Facebook, or X or Insta or whatever. Be careful because there are a lot of scammers out there.
I was on the very real and very legit Agnetha Fatlskog's official Facebook Page with the blue checkmark. Agnetha is the blond female singer of ABBA. I got a blue "thumbs" up on that post. I shit my pants thinking it was the real Agnetha because it really was her official page with the blue checkmark. I had even double and triple checked the website I was on before I made that initial post.
Well it turns out, if you merely hover over the thumb or heart or whatever emoji next to a post, it only gives you a name. What I did the next day was actually click on the blue thumbs up and a link popped up. I clicked on that link and the page looked completely different and no blue checkmark. I knew that second site was fake. I did not click on anything, didn't post anything and I especially did not give out any personal info in dm or pm.
That fucker ruined my day. I seriously was crying out of joy for 24 hours thinking it was real, because I had longed to talk to one of them or get an autograph and hoped that they would reunite and go on tour all that 44 years I had known about them. That like was all I had. And that fucker took it away from me on HER LEGIT PAGE!
FACEBOOK won't do shit about it. But the good thing is I didn't get scammed, but it still ruined my day.
