To determine if someone is genuine on Telegram, be wary of unsolicited messages. Scammers often initiate contact through direct messages that were not requested.

Unusual language or phrasing can also be a tip-off. Be vigilant if the person's communication style seems odd or inconsistent with their claimed identity.

Another red flag is the presence of fake profiles. Fraudsters may create "copycat" accounts, impersonate friends in distress, or engage in romance scams using false identities.

Be cautious if someone asks for fees, especially if they claim it's necessary for accessing a service or opportunity. This is a common tactic used by scammers to extract money from unsuspecting victims.

Refusing to communicate via phone call is another sign of potential fraud. If the person you're interacting with avoids phone contact, it may be because they are not who they claim to be.
