Beware of social media pranksters

Unfortunately there are a few mentally disturbed individuals who find it amusing hacking and creating FAKE profiles of innocent victims

Being a victim of social media pranking, I would like to alert the public of an on-going annoyance on social media. Unfortunately there are a few mentally disturbed individuals who find it amusing hacking and creating FAKE profiles of innocent victims for their insane entertainment.

The public should take precautions when they get invites on social media from these pranksters, as some of them impersonate their victims.

Make certain who you think you are talking to is indeed the actual person whose name is mentioned.

As for these pranksters…well all I will say is that God is all-seeing and knowing and God’s wrath and punishment is unavoidable for the troublemakers.
