Fake accounts are impersonating InstaFrenchie
We want to warn you openly: some people are impersonating InstaFrenchie to deceive the public. This page is here to protect you.
What is happening
Fraudsters contact people on WhatsApp and Telegram claiming to be InstaFrenchie. They sometimes quote our real company registration number to appear credible, and offer fake paid tasks: liking or following Instagram profiles for small amounts. After a few small payouts meant to build trust, they pressure victims to deposit larger and larger sums, then disappear with the money.
InstaFrenchie will never do this
- We never offer paid tasks or paid likes.
- We will never ask you to send money.
- We never recruit anyone via WhatsApp or Telegram for this kind of activity.
If a message offers money in exchange for likes, or asks you for a deposit, it is not us.
If you were contacted
- 1
Do not pay
Do not perform any task and do not send any payment, for any reason.
- 2
Block and report
Report the account directly in the app (WhatsApp, Telegram or Instagram).
- 3
Report to authorities
Report the fraud to your national cybercrime authority. If you lost money, file a police complaint.

Send us the account that contacted you: it helps our case.
