Fake coronavirus masks flogged on Instagram as 10,000 Chinese scam accounts flood market with potentially dangerous gear

THOUSANDS of Instagram accounts are flogging fake coronavirus masks that are potentially lethal, it was reported.

The report, from social media analysts Ghost Data, comes after Facebook, Instagram’s parent company, banned ads and listings that sell medical face masks., so the number of unscrupulous companies offering fakes also appears to be rising. Ghost Data said that while some of the vendors on Instagram could legitimately be selling protective gear at a fair price, many others are likely scammers.

Instagram removed several accounts that were brought to its attention by the Wall Street Journal for violating its rules.
