Everyone and everything is going digital. Scams and fake profiles are one of the big problems on social media platforms because it can ruin someone’s life and steal their identity. No matter if you use social media or not, impersonation can happen to anyone.
As a digital marketing agency owner, I recognized the need for enhanced security measures. So when Meta launched “Meta Verified” – an Instagram and Facebook service that offers monthly subscriptions with multiple advantages protecting your online reputation, my interest was piqued and I decided to subscribe since April 19, 2023.
Now, let me share to you the benefits of it and on how you can use the account protection feature to report impersonation and safeguard your online identity.
