Hi, sorry for the lie, ill admit it is about my sister, just wanted something flashy.
My sister is an artist and has been having scammers impersonate her and scam people out of money by using gift cards. This has been negatively affecting her business because there are now tons of slanderous posts on different platforms calling her a scammer. She uses watermarks, but some of the scammers are changing their usernames to be only slightly off from hers, like an O to a 0.
Is there anything that can be done outside of battle with the court of public opinion? Ive already advised to create accounts on the other platforms and make posts about scammers, as well as reporting anything she sees and contacting support about impersonators, and encouraging her followers to do the same.
This has only become an issue because 1) she is losing business and 2) they have somehow managed to find her phone number, im assuming it was grabbed after a paypal transaction and they found it being linked to her government name, but im not entirely too sure.
Any help or insight would be appreciated.
