Sigrid sews and knits and you may have been following her blog for many years. In 2022 Sigrid's Instagram account was copied as a fake account by scammers. This has happened and keeps happening to many SewOver50 followers.
Be aware that fake accounts are created and the criminals behind these accounts prey on the followers of these accounts. If you are approached by what seems to be a fake account, let the actual person (account owner) know and then report the fake account to Instagram and then block it, for your safety and for the safety of your sewing friends.
When reporting fake accounts on Instagram, if the fake account uses your name/handle/photos, this is a copyright infringement. Report the fake account for copyright infringement to Instagram as well as the fake account as a scam.
SewOver50 intersects with all communities. SewOver50 where we are so over ageism.
