undefined | Facebook, WhatsApp should remove accounts that defraud users, Manhattan DA says
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has publicly rebuked Meta for allowing fake Facebook and WhatsApp accounts to operate on its platforms, accusing the company of facilitating scams that have cost victims tens of thousands of dollars. Bragg’s criticism follows recent legal actions that held Meta liable for failing to police its sites—most notably a $375 million civil judgment in New Mexico over child‑predator negligence and a Los Angeles jury verdict that found Meta and Google responsible for a woman’s social‑media addiction.
According to Bragg, the scams typically involve impersonators creating accounts that masquerade as reputable organizations such as Catholic Charities or immigration‑law firms. These impostor profiles solicit money by offering “pro‑bono” legal services, often targeting immigrant communities that are especially vulnerable. Complaints to the DA’s office now average at least one per month, and chapters of Catholic Charities in cities like Trenton, Houston and Baltimore have already posted warnings on their own Facebook pages. In a letter to Meta chief Mark Zuckerberg, Bragg demanded that the company allow law‑enforcement reporting of false profiles, suspend suspect accounts, and verify that users claiming to represent legal‑service organizations are indeed authorized to do so.
Meta responded that it prohibits users from misrepresenting their identity and is continuously updating detection and enforcement tools, including new technology and partnerships with experts, to keep scammers off its services. Bragg urged users to exercise caution when seeking legal help online, noting that a lawyer who only offers virtual meetings without a physical business address should be treated as a red flag, and that any request for money—even from a seemingly charitable nonprofit—warrants skepticism.

Trump Ally Allen Weisselberg Could Face Perjury Charge if He Doesn’t Cooperate With Manhattan DA
After bringing charges against Trump, the Manhattan district attorney’s office is once again investigating Allen H. Weisselberg, 75.
Weisselberg was recently released from Rikers - the potential perjury stems from statements made under oath during a 2020 interview with the office of NYAG Letitia James.

Trump’s rhetoric is still running hot despite a judge’s warning to cool it. If Trump keeps this up, he could face a gag order.

@GottaLaff I heard some legal pundits talking about charges in NY’s statute of limitations going on hold when #trump was potus & also out of state thus lengthening the time allotted. Is that correct? #trumpindictment #ManhattanDA #law

@DaSkinny1 @Lowie i was visiting an older relative who lives in a 55+ community the other day and in the course of conversation with a neighbor who drove up on his scooter, I was informed “Donald J Trump is the POTUS !!” I laughed. He said this in response to my relative asking who the HOA president was. I wonder what he’s doing now 😂

@juddlegum Thugs like Trump, who will always abuse the power of public attention for personal gain & to vastly cause harm no matter what, need to be taken away every opportunity to address the public.
Public dangers like him will never stop putting public peace at risk to selfishly satisfy their sociopathic, pathological needs.#RuleOfLaw #AccountabilityNow #PreventiveDetention #IncitementOfThePublic #IncitementToViolence #IncitementToRiot #IncitementToInsurrection #IndictTrump #DetainTrump #MobBossThreats #PublicDanger #ManhattanDA #AlvinBragg

“These indictments are coming – and the people who have built their brand around insisting these indictments would never happen are now about to retool their brand around insisting these indictments will never work. Now more than ever, your job is to keep these clowns from emotionally manipulating you.”
