A. To identify fake profiles, look for inconsistencies in the profile information. Check for overly polished photos or profiles that lack personal details. You can also try to initiate a conversation and see if the responses seem generic or scripted. If you suspect a profile is fake, avoid engaging and report it to the platform using their reporting feature.

B. Engage with profiles that have a verified badge or those that provide multiple photos and detailed descriptions. This can help you filter out potential fake accounts.
