Fake Follower Checker questions
4 questions, answered
How do you spot fake followers?
By looking for patterns real audiences rarely make: follower spikes with no content behind them, engagement far below what an audience of that size produces, and activity that does not respond to what the creator posts.
Is the result public?
No. The report goes only to the email address you give us, and Reffero does not publish credibility results for any creator.
Is a creator with some fake followers still worth hiring?
Often, yes. Most established accounts carry inactive or bot followers they never bought. What matters is how large that share is, and whether the engaged part of the audience is the one you want to reach.
Why do you ask for a phone number?
So someone from Reffero can follow up if you want help planning a campaign around what the report shows. The report itself always arrives by email.
