Conventionally, brands were in search of influencers with a large audience to partner with. However, trust and authenticity issues punched the influencer marketing in the last years. Unsuccessful influencer campaigns made brands understand the importance of engagement rate over the number of unreal followers. Fake social media accounts, bot followers, pods are ways of decisive activity that cause influencers to inflate their fees. Influencer fraud damages the whole market by dead-loss investments and diminishing ROI. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reason behind influencer fraud is the lack of transparency<\/span><\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;15px&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;4147&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243;][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are different types of fraud activities on Instagram such as bots, pods, and fake accounts. Let\u2019s see what all these mean.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bots are unreal profiles with no followers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pods are instead like a group of people who agree to like and comment on each other\u2019s posts to artificially raise engagement. Fake social activities take place in almost all social platforms in different forms.\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In May 2018, Facebook alone deleted <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ameinfo.com\/industry\/media\/influencer-marketing-maturation-long-term-solutions-to-fighting-follower-fraud\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">583 million<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> fake accounts. YouTube announced the fake video views susceptibility by influencers to blow up their views counts and all these fraudulent views will be removed as new evidence comes to light. As Instagram is the number one platform for sponsored posts, influencer frauds mostly occur on this platform.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/38d952150b2418f55e0a6a3b0\/files\/12aa8b66-1e33-47e1-9ef7-4b578265f2dd\/THE_ECONOMIC_COST_OF_BAD_ACTORS_Influencers.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CHEQ report<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, fake influencer activity cost brands 1.3 billion in 2019 and expected to reach 1.5 billion this year. Plus to monetary costs, influencer fraud has indirect costs causing the loss of trust by consumers. It has a lot more sizeable impact on the industry that can change consumer behavior.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to spot fake activity? <\/span><\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=&#8221;4143&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Engagement rate<\/span><\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Engagement is the first factor to define if the account has fraudulent activities or not. If the engagement rate of influencers highly deviates from the average platform engagement rate it is the most probably because of influencer fraud. However, bot accounts do play with likes and comments to pretend trusty influencer images. Thankfully, bot comments also can be revealed by human involvement. If the influencer gets a huge number of the same positive comments or emojis it is probably by the bot accounts. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Follower growth rate <\/span><\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Influencer growth rates can tell a lot about the soundness of the influencers\u2019 profiles. If influencer gets sudden hikes or falls in the number of followers that is because of buying bots or due to deletion of fake followers by the platforms. Trusty influencers show steady growth over time as they built their followers authentically.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The demonstrative way to find out if the influencer has done any fraud or not is checking out post captions. If an influencer tends to write small captions or emojis all the time it implies that influencer does not care about the aesthetics of their profile. Authentic influencers write long and meaningful captions, usually asking questions at the end. Quality captions also depict how influencers are interested in building relations with followers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Influencer fraud can also be defined by going into followers\u2019 accounts. Too much presence of profiles with no image and also, no followers manifests the fraudulent activity by influencers. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do not forget to check the comments<\/span><\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=&#8221;4144&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scroll down and read the comments. If influencer gets single-word comments like \u201cGreat!\u201d, \u201cAwesome!\u201d, only emojis and repetitive lines in most of their posts and if they do not match with the content of the posts that is the sign of influencer fraud. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/keepface.com\/site\/en\/grow-loyal-community-through-social-media-groups\/?utm_source=blog&#038;utm_medium=inline&#038;utm_campaign=influencer-fraud-detection-fake-social-activity\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Community building<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is the key to successful influencer activity.
