josielewa:If the location is unknown it will still show Africa or that you are using VPN |

no, small boys use vpn...big boys use VPN with socks5 support, most guys just vpn without the socks5 support, only the vpn server admins can tell your location, nobobdy else, they can retrieve your logs and hand it over to government security agencies if need be, like the FBi even to get a reliable VPN provider that can keep your data discrete and safe is rare. Most of these VPN companies are all reporting back to their security agencies, reason why i laugh at those using vpn, i can never use a socks5 or vpn owned and operated by an european or american, i rather use a russian made socks5 or any country hosting its VPN or socks5 in a western hated country... wiseone28: |

NairaX:Lol you don't understand what's going on. The new X location update is actually exposing scammers and bot accounts and I bet most of these cheap and low level scammers ain't aware they're being exposed. You think Nigerians are the ones donating lol.. |

socialjustice93:I understand what's going on . If location updates were enough to expose scammers, half of the “Lagos • Dubai • Miami” accounts would’ve vanished by now.Scammers don’t need to be smart — they just need the victims to be careless. And yes, Nigerians might not be the ones donating the big money… but the fake narratives are crafted for a global audience. Once the story goes viral, somebody somewhere falls for it. Scam is scam — whether the target is local or foreign. Acting like the new X features suddenly crippled Yahoo graduates is giving them way too much credit. |

Since yesterday, I’ve seen up to 40 accounts claiming to be from other countries but actually operating from Nigeria. The whole thing is just embarrassing
