Don't click on links or usernames without verifying their legitimacy.
Example 1 - Links:
1. fragment.com
2. fragment.com
Example 2 - Usernames:
1. @rose
2. @rose
Safety steps:
1. Long-press any link before clicking to reveal the actual hyperlink destination.
Important character distinctions to verify:
- 'l' (lowercase L)
- 'I' (uppercase i)
- '1' (number one)
- '0' (zero) vs 'O' (uppercase o)
Example 3:
1. @hello
2. @heIIo
Username verification:
- Always check the actual username field, not just the display name or bio
- Impersonators may attempt to deceive by putting legitimate usernames in their bio instead of having the actual username
- Example:
* Legitimate account: Username field: @hello
* Impersonator: Username field: (different or none), Bio: "@hello"
