Yes, I usually get fooled by some fake articles on the internet when I wasn't aware about it because anyone can make up any stories that look or sound real. Plus they can pose as anyone on the internet. You'll never know who's behind all these.
From what I have experienced before, Twitter which is the most popular social media website now, some of the users from there like to create accounts and pose as someone famous. At first, people or fans will 'follow' that particular poser's account and thinking that is real. Everyone goes all happy and tries to talk to that 'poser', they get so excited when they receive a reply from the 'poser'. I have no clue what's their purpose of doing this but these accounts doesn't last long.
In addition, some internet users like to spread fake rumors or gossips around the net. Usually they doesn't have prove of what they said, so it's easy to tell whether it's true or not, but those who are gullible fell for it easily.
But now, I only trust official articles from some reliable sources. Even when it's fake but looks true, I will ask for the source they've gotten from and only I will believe it.
It's true and when it comes to celebrity, there is also a lot of fake rumors and gossips spreading all around. Besides that, those account created in social media which using celebrities name and pretending are them is really happening and the number is "huge", for example, facebook as well, but as u read all those info clearly and detail you'll actually find that it can't be the real and can be detect is just a fan made, but still there are fans who didn't realize it. So, as in conclude, we shouldn't trust information in internet without thinking the validity of it.
ReplyDeleteyeahhh... I get that a lot too. They think they can be a 'poser' forever?? Whatever~~
ReplyDeleteThey din't know that it really irritates the artist themselves....
And it's true that we should only check up on official websites...
I get fooled by some fake articles on the internet too, perhaps we need to be aware about it.
ReplyDeleteAgree with you that we should trust official articles from some reliable sources. Don't simply agree or believe with article that without reliable source.
