Having an account on Snapchat is so much fun. Streaking your precious moments of the day with a quick camera snap has been a favorite activity of so many users. And who doesn’t like the snap filters, communications, videos, and much more?
But it becomes a hurdle in your happiness when facing Snapchat fake accounts. Fake accounts could be anyone, such as bot, spam, spoof, or a hate speech account.
Finding the real identity behind any Snapchat fake account on our own isn’t an easy job to do, especially in the case of Bot and Spam accounts.
Also, Snapchat has a privacy policy. So even if the account is considered fake according to the activities being done by that Snapchat account holder, its privacy will still be protected by Snapchat.
The easiest option is to block or mute the fake account holder. But if you wish to know the details behind the fake user, you can try these ways to trap the fake Snapchat id.
How to Find Out Who Made a Fake Snapchat Account
Looking out for some solutions to know the real identity behind a fake Snapchat account? Here is what you can do
1. Report on Snapchat
The most common way is to file a report on Snapchat. Every social media platform has created a page for reporting accounts and content. You may or may not get to know the real identity but reporting an account can save you from further cyber attacks by the fake user.
2. Report The Case In Cyber Cell
Cyber Crime is an important issue to deal with. Snapchat may not always give you a quick or an actual response on your Snapchat report. If your case is serious, don’t wait to report a case in an actual cyber cell.
Officials at the cyber cell will help you to keep your identity safe and, at the same time, track all the important details and stop the unfair use by the fake Snapchat account holder.
3. Track a Fake Snapchat Account
Snap Map can be a good tool that can be used to know the location of the device being used by a fake account holder. Location can help you analyze when searching amongst a set of people you doubt.
But if the fake account holder hasn’t enabled the Snap Map, then you can use the websites made for this purpose.
Select any of such trustable social media tracker websites and choose Snapchat. Now that you have access to the website, search on the search bar and select the confirm button.
You can know the exact IP address of the user from this. After the IP address, you might get directed to a page that tells you “unlock all details.”
Click on it, and you might be redirected to a page that informs you of the exact location, IPV4, state/region/country of the user.
Now, this isn’t as easy as it looks while reading, but if you get the right track, you might get your desired search too.
Some of the apps/websites you can refer are:
- mSpy
- iKeyMonitor
- FoneMonitor
