Grow up, kiddos: Saba Qamar is not happy with fan impersonating her on Twitter

A social media user created a fake profile on the bird app with the Baaghi star’s name and purchased a verified account against it. While celebrities are used to having multiple fan accounts created by people under their names, a fake verified account is not only misleading but also classifies as impersonation.

On Saturday, the Kamli actor took to her Instagram stories with a screenshot of her actual account to clarify that the impersonated one is a fake one and that people should not fall for the blue tick. “This is my official Twitter handle so these small unknown pages should stop spreading fake information for the sake of being in the limelight,” wrote a not-so-happy Qamar.

“It’s time to grow up, kiddos,” she concluded referring to how childish it is to have created a fake account and then spend money on it to gain attention.

However, it turns out that Qamar isn’t the only one who became a victim of fake blue tick marks and Musk has realised his mistake. After a much-debated attempt at changing the Twitter accounts’ verification system to a paid two-tier model, the CEO announced to revert to the original gray check mark for verified accounts on Thursday in a tweet.

He claimed “corrupt legacy Blue ‘verification’ checkmarks” as the reason for removing them. Until Friday, Twitter’s blue checkmarks could be purchased for $7.99/month, leading users to set up fake accounts impersonating brands and people.
