Phishing campaigns misuse fake social media verification links by sending deceptive messages or emails to users, claiming that their account needs to be verified for authenticity. These messages often appear to be from trusted sources, such as social media platforms, and contain links that lead to fake login pages designed to steal users’ account credentials. Once a user enters their login information on these fake pages, the scammers behind the phishing campaign can capture the sensitive data and use it for malicious purposes, such as identity theft or unauthorized access to the victim’s account.
