Legitimate TikTok giveaways never ask for your password, home address, or personal information through a DM

📌 Tip 48 of 72 🏷️ snap-tiktok 👶 Ages 3–5

Legitimate TikTok giveaways never ask for your password, home address, or personal information through a DM.

If an account claiming to run a giveaway asks you to message them privately and share sensitive data, it’s a scam.

Report the account to TikTok, block them, and only engage with verified brand accounts posting giveaways in their main feed.

Ask your child: "If a friend DM’d you asking for personal info for a giveaway, would you give it? Why or why not?"
