Will scammers continue to contact us even after we block them on our social media accounts or emails?
Yes, scammers can still attempt to contact you even after you've blocked them on social media accounts or emails, although blocking can reduce the likelihood. Here’s why:
- New Accounts: Scammers can easily create new profiles or email addresses to try to reach you again.
- Spam Messages: Even if they are blocked, they may try sending messages from different platforms or using spam techniques.
- Fake Profiles: They could use fake identities or set up multiple accounts to continue their attempts.
However, blocking them does reduce the chances of direct contact and can be effective in preventing repetitive harassment from the same account. To further protect yourself, be cautious about sharing personal information online and consider reporting scammers to the platform's support team. They may take action to prevent the scammer from targeting others as well.
