As look-alike galleries and bounties grow in popularity, it is important to practice safety and privacy online. Occasionally, bad actors might create fake profiles or use stock images to claim rewards. Follow these tips to verify look-alike profiles and protect your data.
1. Use Reverse Image Search
If someone submits a matching photo claiming to be your doppelgänger, run a reverse image search on Google Images or TinEye. If the photo appears on stock photography websites or belongs to an influencer from another country, it is likely a fake submission.
2. Look for AI Matching Scores
Our platform features built-in **AI Face Recognition**. Ensure that the matching profile has run through the scanner and shows a valid matching score. Fake or blurry photos will fail to generate a proper landmark coordinate set, making them easy to filter out.
3. Request a Live Video Call
Before transfering any bounty rewards, arrange a brief video call (on Zoom, WhatsApp, or Google Meet). A live conversation is the ultimate verification toolâit proves that the person is real, shows their actual expressions, and lets you celebrate the resemblance face-to-face!
4. Protect Personal Information
Never share sensitive information like bank passwords, home addresses, or government IDs. Use secure, standard payment services to transfer reward bounties, keeping your transaction safe and enjoyable.
