Facebook Refuses To Take Down A Scammer Who Goes By My Name

If you use Facebook and see a post by Gail Alfar then read this post: There is a scammer who is stealing my identity and impersonating me on Facebook and scamming people. Facebook refuses to take this down.

I do NOT use Facebook and would never ask you to connect with me there Someone is impersonating me on WhatsApp and making fake accounts on other platforms to ask you to contact them.

THIS IS NOT ME

The subscriber who informed me this was happening, told me there were “11 pages of text history on messenger” and that he was devasted when the scammer got upset and it threw him in a tail spin. 

“Oh my gosh there is soo much. You are going to be floored. The person even reposted pictures as if you were active as well! They had me believe you were coming with two Tesla engineers, I had set up a private jet (a friend is owner of a charter company) and the pilot would drive you all in a Tesla from airport to the accommodations I had arranged.”

Here are a few screenshots of the imposter.

Here is the conversation I had with a subscriber on X who details the horrors by the scammer.

  2. Visible ID Verification: X offers a visible ID verification feature, allowing users to easily identify verified accounts. This helps to distinguish between genuine accounts and potential impersonators, providing an additional layer of security for users.
  3. Enhanced Privacy Settings: X provides users with more granular privacy controls, allowing them to better manage their personal information and who can see their posts. This makes it harder for impersonators to gather information about their targets and reduces the risk of identity theft.

The case of the Facebook scammer impersonating me, Gail Alfar, is a stark reminder of the dangers that lurk in the online world. As we continue to rely heavily on digital platforms for communication and information sharing, it is crucial for both users and social media companies to take proactive steps to prevent and combat identity theft.
