How to Detect Fake Publications

One of the ways of detecting fake publications and notices is by establishing the source of the information.

The first step is to determine whether it comes from an official website, or a social media platform associated with a reputable organization.

A lot of fake publications try to appear like a real organization by using somewhat similar domain names or branding.

Additionally, many fake publications contain grammatical errors and other mistakes that genuine officials from government bodies are unlikely to make.
