Calvin Harris SCAMMED

Saturday 25 August 2018

If you are approached by any account using the images of this man, then you are being approached by a fake account manned by a scammer.


The real guy here is the DJ  Calvin Harris

I have only come across one account on Instagram using the images of Calvin Harris so far but be watchful for scammers using famous people.  This is where the ability to perform a reverse image search comes into its own.  Please spend a couple of minutes using this function.  Google it.  You will find the way to use reverse image searches on a phone (you can download on app) or you can use them on your web browser on your phone or on a computer.  Google images is good or another you can use is Tin Eye.  The couple of minutes it takes to get a result (and not all images will get a result) it is worth it because you may be successful and find out straightaway who the real person is.  You may, of course, not be successful but it is worth a try because it could save you a lot of heartache in the long run.

Please never approach the real guy here.  He is a victim just like you are and there is little he can do to stop the scammers using his pictures.  You can help out by making sure that you report the fake account promptly to the platform you are using and block the account so they cannot keep contacting you.

Never send money, tech, itunes/Google Play/Amazon cards to these fakes.  You just end up out of pocket and feeling foolish when the scammer doesn't do what they say they will do.  You are also just perpetuating their scamming lifestyle and their ability to scam you and other women again.
