Hello Hive Learners friends, how are you guys today, hopefully we are still in good health and can follow the activities smoothly.
Today is the last day of September and tomorrow we are already into October. Hopefully in October we will become a better identity and success for all of us in this beloved community. Now in this edition we have set a very interesting theme title by the community, namely fake news. As we often experience so far, we see a lot of fake news on social media or in other media that makes people very nervous about the news. All right friends, here I will share a little with you all about my experience when I heard fake news.
Today the media is one of the places where we see a lot of fake news being spread by irresponsible people. This fake news is really very dangerous for people who don't understand about it. Because sometimes everyone who reads the fake news does not specify whether it is true or false. I have also experienced the first time I used social media and there I was caught up in a fake news. But at that time I was still safe with the fake news because before I continued with the contents of the news I first showed my brother who was more experienced than me and he said this is a fake news and hoax that is in the media.
My brother, whom I showed the fake news to, he also told me If there is a media that publishes fake news, don't be easy for you to believe. And he also said try to see first what site or media published the news. Usually the media that often publish fake news are media that are held by bad people to deceive the public. So my brother taught me to see accurate media so that we can trust so that we are not easily deceived by the media of bad people.
Once I read a job vacancy that has a very high salary that a friend of mine sent via WhatsApp to me. And at that time I was a little curious about the news which opened job vacancies with very high employee salaries. The news also contained the name of the email from that company and there was also a telephone number. But at that time I was still suspicious of the news and I tried to open it on Google about the news. I opened the website of the company that opened the job vacancy and when I saw there the email written on the company's official account with the news sent by my friend, there was indeed a slight difference. So the name of the email when I read it was only one letter different, so if we don't look carefully, we don't know that the email is wrong. After I started to suspect again and I tried to see other news on the official account or the comments there and it was already written that there were some fake news made by unknown people about the company.
So from that experience when I get news on social media I am not easy to believe anymore but I have to detail first how the news is true or just a scam. And there is also a lot that we see in the media of various kinds of news to invite us to join an application. And I also see a lot of my friends who have joined they have a lot of losses because when they join they spend capital and after that the application is closed. So they suffered some of the losses they had already done.
So for all of us it is easy to get fake news and not easy for us to believe inaccurate news made by unknown people. So here, let's learn together so that we are not easily fooled by fake news or hoaxes. There are many fake news nowadays, and we also see a lot of fake news that vilify something in order to benefit them. So we have to think about it first before drawing a conclusion. If there are news that we get.
Well friends, maybe that's all I can share about the fake news theme that has been set by the community. Hopefully with this article I will be more careful in the future when I get news in the media or in other places. Thank you to friends who have given me the opportunity and support so that I can still write on this occasion.
Special Thanks
