- Your pictures, your videos, your memories – all come together to create your social media identity. InvestigateTV has uncovered scammers targeting your online accounts to create a whole new you, all designed to scam your closest friends out of their money.

Those “scamming problems” showed up recently, as Lacey said she found multiple duplicate accounts copying her content and faking her identity. Lacey said she first learned about the issue after friends reached out asking if she was trying to sell them Bitcoin.
Lacey said she followed up with Instagram for help, going through all the steps to report the imposter accounts. She even enlisted her friends to help.
