Our participants report seeing fake news on a variety of social media platforms. The three biggest were Facebook (30%), YouTube (15%), and Twitter (12%).

[CPSVP @CPSVPVT]

Our data shows almost half, 48%, of participants said they have seen fake news about COVID-19 in the past 12 months. Participants were evenly split on whether the fake news was making COVID-19 seem more or less serious than it really is.

Online scams are everywhere, especially during the holidays. Our data @CybercriminologyLab show that computer familiarity (self-report) is not really a protective factor for #olderindividuals, especially when it doesn't pair with applying technical guardians.
