Warning! I was Targeted by a Scammer

[jo0008]

Hi just letting Fitbit users know that I was recently targeted by a fraudster through Fitbit. A man allegedly called Ryan James from Atlanta, USA messaged me stating that he was a UN orthopedic surgeon working in Kubal. Please do not answer/reply to this man as he is a fraudster who will stak you and try to steal your personal identity information as well as constantly pester you for money for months.

Typical profile orthopaedic surgeon... They've tried that one on me many times. Always do a reverse image search.

You upload the profile photo and then you can try tineye reverse image search. Download the photo on there and look for similar photos. You'll find matching profile pictures under different names

All the best

Yes, I uploaded the picture to Google Image and it worked the same way.
Found everyone who was messaging me except for one. All proved to be fake
and most of them were Ortho Surgeons.

Why am I not surprised. Another clue is that the majority use very poor orthography to say that they are supposed to be surgeons
