1. They don’t engage much with clients

If you see the business owners never engage much with clients then there’s a possibility it’s a fake. Accounts that only broadcast or push out updates and content instead of having conversations and engaging with other community members are often fake

If the account keeps sharing the same link to an item in such a short time then there’s cause for alarm.

3. They’ll ask for money before delivery

If a business owner asks for money before delivery that is most likely a fake business. Always refuse to give money before delivery, you would rather buy the product by yourself instead of ordering it online.

4. No verification badge

Okay, not all businesses have verification badges but if the company is a known company then a badge should help you. For example, Twitter displays a light blue verification badge (check-mark icon) at the top left corner of a verified account, above the profile name, Twitter handle and bio. Badges that appear on a different part of the profile, such as a user’s avatar, are not legitimate.
