Recently, scammers have used hashtags such as #CashAppFriday on social media to trick unsuspecting users to think that the scams are the real CashApp. Then they do not receive any money. The scammers also like to use YouTube to advertise their “CashApp Hacks” which aren’t legit as they are told they receive the money but they actually do not.

I was actually going to post this article interestingly enough, because I’ve these seen these types of tweets/retweets all over my twitter feed. Or the ones where a tweeter states they’ve come into a huge fortune and are willing to pay off your student loans, just follow and retweet and they’ll pick a name out of a hat! I believe that those who are falling victim to these types of scams involving free money are probably the same ones who believe they’ve won a free iPad or Amazon gift card (…insert your name, email, date of birth, social security number and blood type to claim YOUR free prize!) When will people learn that if it’s too good to be true, then it’s probably fake? It truly is sad that people are being scammed but… there’s really no cure for being dumb. We can teach people to be aware of these types of scam campaigns (scampaigns as I like to call them) but at the end of the day, if people fall victim, it’s kinda their fault.
