NINJIO Season 8: Episode 10, Who Are You?
Instagram, Facebook, Tik Tok, and other social media platforms have seen a jump in account cloning. Unlike account hacking, where a bad actor takes over your real account, cloning involves a bad actor using your personal information, such as photos, to copy your account, thereby creating a duplicate profile. In this episode, starring Alex Thomas as Tim, we see firsthand how social media account cloning plays out for its unknowing victims. Watch to learn more about social media account cloning and what you can do to protect yourself and your organization from these kinds of attacks. Stay tuned for a special optional segment at the end of the episode with Zack Schuler, NINJIO’s Founder, and his personal story related to this type of scam.
