Would You Open The Link Appearing In This Tweet?
If yes, why? Because you’re curious? Because you trust it? I really hope not!
Never open a link in a tweet from someone you don’t know. Especially anyone who hasn’t bothered to upload an Avatar that you can recognise. Eggs are a dead giveaway for scammers, spammers and people in hiding.
The only links I ever open are the;
- links I’m expecting
- those from someone I recognise.
If there isn’t an explanation along with the link, then I don’t open them. That doesn’t mean to say just ignore these messages. Just don’t let your curiosity take control.
Have a look at the person tweeting you.
- do they have an avatar?
- how many followers do they have?
- what does their profile say?
- do they even have a profile?
- how many tweets have they sent and received?
- what were the contents of those tweets?
- are they having discussions or just spamming?
Do your due diligence and check things out for yourself.
