If you have any knowledge of other scams that may target artists or influencers please feel free to share them in the comments!
Another scam I forgot to mention is an email that claims to be VistaCreates, its a phishing scam that wants you to click a link and download a folder that probably has malware. please make sure you google any company that reaches out to you before responding.
did you remove the screen-sharing application from your computer?
@@learningpatience2371 Those are usually built-in, no? That and remote access?
@@learningpatience2371 we only used screen sharing through zoom on the web browser so I didn't download anything, I still reformatted my computer though just in case!
Hey! Sorry to hear that happen to you. Recently a youtuber named Kat Blaque shared her story of being scammed and hacked too, she also lost her facebook page. They contacted and said that they wanted to do a live, but it ended up being fake. She explain it very detailed in her video, maybe you could check, the method seens the same they used to you. Again, I'm sorry that something like that ended up happening to you, and I hope you get to recuperate your page. (sorry about the english, not my first language )
This is really timely because we're heading into scammy-er waters. See AI in general and all the current drama about Microsoft Recall (lots of potential red flags for scams and data breaches).
Scams aren't about if you're dumb or smart, they take advantage of your emotions (trust, fear, greed, compassion etc). It's so important to understand that it's about hacking your humanity to gain access to something profitable.
I'm sorry this happened to you but it's great that you're sharing your experience.
Thank you for sharing, scammers are everywhere these days it's horrible! At least you noticed and it didn't go much further than that. Be kind to yourself I know getting scammed can make you feel horrible and stressed, sending good vibes!
I got scammed in a similar way out of my facebook page a while back. I had like 45,000 followers on it... I wasnt able to get it back either. Its so easy to get scammed, but its also easy to feel really stupid when it happens to you.
I’m so sorry you had this experience, your the sweetest person ever for this video, scammers suck. 😢
Kat Blaque on RUclips also got the exact same scam, so you're clearly not the only one who fell for it. I'm so sorry this happened to you too!
Forget email! You can't trust the phone either. They aren't even spoofing anymore. Instead they are creating their own websites that they push to the top of search results, so their specific phone number comes up as legit. Scammers are getting _wild!_
Without clicking the links or looking at URLs, the search summaries look like they confirm the caller's legitimacy. But if you click the link, the sites look off. Like, off center, fuzzy logo, Google map is actually an image rather than an interactive map kind of off. But if you're in a rush thinking the bank is calling because you are in the middle of losing all of your money at some ATM and all you need to do is give the guy on the phone your social in order to save yourself...well...
All I'm saying is that these scammers have become next level devious.
crazy experience but i'm so glad you got your account back in the end!! i've noticed a lot of Instagram messages i get are accounts that don't even follow me (and are usually private) that want to purchase my work or commission me. i've never responded to them so i'm not 100% sure if theyre legit or not but it is odd to not even follow someone you want to purchase from or hire for work.
the sure fire way to know if it's a scam is to ask for 25% payment upfront. if they oblige theyre serious. and make sure in your terms you write that any chargebacks will be disputed. if it's in your terms and you can prove they agreed then you will successfully dispute with no repercussion.
I was reporting those posts left and right, so sad that fb makes it so hard to get help. Happy to see that you got everything figured out! ❤️
Omg Kat Blaque just talked about this happening to her too! This really sucks
I was just about to comment this! it sucks that they both got scammed like this. I hope facebook gets better at dealing with this kind of stuff
It's so brave that you shared this. Please don't be mad at yourself for being victimized. Have you considered calling your District Attorney? They likely have a way to report this and if you can share any details that may lead them back to the culprit, you never know, he might land in jail. Wouldn't that be great! It's worth a try to at least explore it. If everyone reports it when it happens, it may push law enforcement to come down on FB for not providing more friendly ways to deal with this more swiftly than 2 months!
Most of them are from abroad.
@@fionasimagination breaking the law is still breaking the law. They can and sometimes find them and extradite them to face a judge here.But not if the crimes are unreported.
Thank you for sharing what happened and I’m so sorry you had to experience this. Scams have been getting scarier & more frequent since 2020. Being victimized by a scammer has no weight on your intelligence. Thank god you got your account back!
I am so sorry this happened to you! Scammers are the absolute worst, I have been scammed out of my account too once.
I've gotten one with the vague message asking for a painting for an anniversary, with an incredibly broad price range, no specific painting or style or colors were requested, just a small comment about loving my style and how anything from my gallery would do. It was submitted through my request form on my website, so it looked pretty legit. It really was convincing, but a couple of the phrases they mixed up wouldn't make sense for who they said they were. So i left it on read. That Facebook scam is wild, i hate that these things keep evolving and becoming harder and harder to detect, especially when they actually offer money. I hate that you had to deal with that. Thank you for putting this out there, it's only through sharing this kind of stuff that we can help each other 💜
I got scammed on Instagram. A similar situation to yourself. I just wanted to send love and solidarity. Your black kitty is gorgeous 🖤
I get scam mails on instagram asking for commissions almost every day. If you ask them for details they even send you reference photos. They are definitely scams though. Also scams asking for NFT's are a constant 🙄😤
omg! The same thing happened to another creator I watched. the script is the same but they changed the name to Travis Kelce.
I heard that's what scammers do. they rush you so you don't have time to think about what you are doing.
Thank you so much for bringing attention to this. I know this whole situation must be embarrassing to talk about and even more frustrating to deal with the aftermath. But by you bringing awareness to these kinds of scams could prevent potential attacks for others who might not be aware of these kind of scams.
I’m so sorry this happened to you! I remember when this was going on over on FB; I was reporting every post I saw. Scammers are everywhere and it’s so disheartening and infuriating. Thank you for sharing your experience
Thank you for sharing your story to help others to be safe online. Please don't be hard on yourself, it can happen to anyone. Those scammers can be really clever at catching people off guard. Scammers make me really, really angry at how they try to mess with people and steal their money, identity info or social networks.
Scammers are always angry and trying to rush when you talk to them, it seems. I have been led along 2 different believable scams and afterwards I realized that as a pattern. As soon as someone starts getting irritated with me or not listening/reading what I'm saying I nope out. Sorry this happened to you, I am glad you got your page back and are spreading the word!
Awww I am so sad that happened to you!! It’s amazing and so kind that you are sharing your story so others can learn from it. It’s scary to share about these kinds of things and I just think so highly of you! These kind of scams can happen to anyone and they really thrive on people not knowing about them because there is a lot of shame people feel when they have been scammed so they don’t want to tell anyone about it. But all that shame should be on the scammer!
I remember my first retail job I got targeted. The scammers knew I was new cause I had been training at the register before my boss put me at a register alone for real. The scammers came up to buy something then they handed me money and when I handed back the change they started yelling at me telling me they had given me a larger bill then they actually did. I was so flustered and trying to do a good job and be nice and that’s what they prey on 😪 they make you all confused and feel rushed so you don’t stop and think. It can honestly happen to anyone. And these scammers are professionals they do it all the time so they know exactly what to say to get what they want.
You are awesome and your art is so inspiring! And just sending some positive vibes your way!!😊
yeahh it makes me so mad that they acted impatient and tried to get me upset in order to take advantage of me! ughhh I just hope no one else ever falls for it :(
I know exactly how you feel about the cash scam!! I worked at amc theaters in my teens and people used to try to scam me with their cash change claiming that I gave them the wrong change so many times! Luckily there were cameras for proof but then they just turn around and do it to someone else, I hate it!
Thank you so much for the kind words!🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
this is awful im sorry this happened. as someone who did make this mistake actually, the woman just told me "oh, i gave you a 50" i apologized, got someone to open the register to hand her the rest of the change since i confused it for a 20. if they freak out like that like that it's most certainly a scam. if anything have a manager there when you open the register so you can look at the bill you put in because it'd be at the top that would completely ruin the scams script.
Another artist I watch on Facebook had this happen to them.. they still don't have access to it weeks later
Soo glad that you got your Facebook page back!! Immediately I saw a video not related with your content I know something weird was going on.
But luckly its over, and Thank you for sharing safety tips 🙏🏼
I've got hacked by someone who played Trish Stratus
Im glad your sharing your experience, i also got scammed (phone scam) and it was so confusing and scary! Scammers really are ruthless and will go through any means to get your account and/or money. Also to add, this is not your fault at all! For a long time I blamed myself for being 'gullable', but the scammers are to blame the whole time.
I'm so sorry this happened to you. I reported as many posts as I could as I saw them. You're not dumb so please don't think of yourself that way. Scams are getting harder and harder to identify, but the fact that Facebook wouldn't help you is horrendous!
I’m so sorry this happened to you. It’s happening to everyone and scammers are getting savvy these days. I agree that he rushed you to throw you off. Don’t beat yourself up, please. Be kind to yourself hecuase this is happening to everyone and it’s so easy to feel devastated by your own blindsidedness. I had this happen in 2020 and felt so horrible. Like hot vibrating dread through my body because it was an instant understanding once it happened.
Hugs honey.
I've been seeing this happen a lot lately. Don't feel embarrassed. ❤
I’ve had scammers ring here at my fathers which I have answered and they do rush you, act mad and irritated at you. I did exactly as you and googled the action they wanted me to take and the word scam and bam, there it was. So now I piddle around with them and waste their time. One of them was rude to me and told me I was letting down my family etc etc I told them to F. Off because no one in customer service talks to a customer like that IMO.
oh man this would have felt like a personal attack to me I’m so sorry this happened
im so sorry you went through that :c ty for sharing
Something similar just happened to artist Camilla d'Errico. it wasn't a podcast, but I believe her ad revenue on FB. So sick of these scammers! Sorry this happened to you. Glad you were able to get your account back.
thanks for sharing it. I don't have lots of followers on facebook but I changed my authentification factor just in case.
They have gotten smarter about how to scam people out of Facebook pages and insta. :(
Please don't feel bad for being scammed. There's a scam out there for everyone, and the scammers are at fault, never their victim.
Youre NOT dumb! If there is one thing the scammers are relatively good at, its social engineering. I know a few people that have unfortunately fallen for this scam too. They've all said it was pretty believable.
Did they steal money from you?
I'm sorry this happened to you. One thing I would say to everyone: ALWAYS be leery of anyone offering money, especially a juicy amount of money, (example, $2,000.00 rather than, say $200.00), and too soon. My thought would be: why does anyone want to give ME this money? What will this person gain? That you fell for this (and that others fall for similar scams) does not mean you (or they) are dumb; it just means you're sincere and trusting, and you assume you are dealing in good faith with other sincere people. It is your good character traits that makes you (and others) vulnerable to such come ons. I'm happy for you that you got out of the mess and got your account back.
I'm so sorry this happened to you :( Scams are terrible! I recently received an e-mail from a company called Houseart wanting to send me paint by number kits to review for my channel. I kinda am hesitant with this because I went on their official website and sent a e-mail through there and haven't heard anything back. It's sad if this was fake because I am a tiny creator who makes videos for fun and these scammers are getting better at what they do sadly.
Hang in there it’s a crazy time we live in 😮
I saw another creator explain a similar scam and he said the giveaway was when the camera wouldn't work. This creator had a whole media team online with him at the time and the got his facebook page. He had to hire a company to help get it back.
Also you said that they gained access to you computer. You gotta make sure there is no Spyware on your computer cuz if they have access to your computer and you're logged in to your email they can get authentication codes. So please check your PC and clean it out from those people.
Don't be hard on yourself for falling for this scam. You are an artist - you specialize in painting, drawing and creating. These shitty people specialize in scamming. They have techniques honed on thousands of poor people. Thank you for sharing and advices! Hugs and be safe!
Thank you for sharing this to me
So sorry this happened to you~ thanks so much for sharing~
These scammers these days are so clever! My IG account got hacked just almost the same way.
You are not stupid! Scammers are nasty people. Thank you for sharing. ❤
another creator i follow was scammed in the same way by someone posing as travis kelce and his team
Similar things are happening in all creator spheres, not just art, and you are not the first sizable creator to lose complete access to their Facebook page without Facebook helping even a bit. Y'all be careful when the offers sound too good to be true, and honestly even if they dont
I am so so sorry that this happened to you.
I’m sorry that happened to you. It happened to me last year. I got Instagram back. Someone tried to copy my Instagram account but my followers know that not me.
dont feel bad. a bigger account [forget which] fell for the scam too [may be the person you referred too] it happens even to the best of us. best just to learn from it. i am curious what these people are doing it for honestly.
Could it be that they were logged into your account and until you set up two factor authenticator they could still access it because they never signed out?
Don't beat yourself up!
They probably posted videos to get your audience to watch them for ad revenue. Either way, they suck. Glad you got your page back!
You're not dumb! A lot people arent taught how to detect scammers, fish emails or texts. If you want a feeling a karmic revenge I recommend watching a Kitboga video :D
Thanks for sharing the experience, so sorry this happened. Hugs! ♥
Hannah Shaw aka thekittenlady had this done too a few months ago. Scammers stink!
Also don’t feel silly about this happening. Scammers are getting more creative.
Thank you for sharing this with us.
Don't feel foolish. Scamming has become the new form of employment for a lot of lazy POS. My friend got scammed out of 5,000 through Facebook messenger. They're everywhere, unfortunately.
Did you log on when you shared your screen? Maybe you had it on show password and logged on he saw it.
Or you pressed a link and logged in through that and that link hd some malware that made him able to see your password.
Really the only thing he needed to do was send a photo or something that had malware on it, and the oboy thing you need to do is open the pictures/press the picture.
Doesnt have to be a photo, it can be a link or other stuff aswell.
That malware can do pretty much whatever They want it to do and programme it to do, here it seems to be either see your password OR get like a copy of your unit (computer or phone) on their.
But one of these ways are the most common way to hack someone.
I just want to add maybe They didnt ONLY take the facebook-password. You should make sure there is notering left on the computer that you shared with him.
I would really make sure They dont have access to anything before you log on to your bank. Especially make sure They didnt installed anything on the computer u shared with them.
And make sure you dont open files like for ex links or photos from just anyone.
I’m glad nothing worse happened.
DO NOT write down your passwords! That's absolutely the worst as it gives anyone that can view that notebook/piece of paper access to your account. Use a password protected password manager and DO NOT use the same password for any account. If you're using your phone or browser to manage your password make sure that it's protected with a code. Never get remote access to your computer. Most scams are social hacks where you provide the scammer with access. You are generally the weakest security link.
"Oh, those Russians....."
It’s so messed up that happened! I’m glad you got it sorted. I can’t imagine the stress it would have put on you.
Its getting crazy. I don't believe anything on facebook. And I almost got scammed and almost got my friends scammed cause a person emailed me through my personal website asking me to do art for them. And offered me money and I had not quoted them anything yet. I was to busy so I sent nit to friends as a referral and they wete the ones that figured out it was scam.
there are two types of people
those who don't know they have been hacked
and those who know they have been
domain names mean a lot
if a "company" has a gmail..im hella sus...
someone among us
