Purushottam Lal Bhari · ECS Transactions · 2022
The social network has become an important part of our lives today which is prone to online impersonation as well as fake accounts. These online profiles are used by intruders to cause harm in online social networks (OSNs) in order to perform malicious activities in form of privacy intrusion like theft identity. So it becomes necessary in OSN, to identify the account whether it is real or fake. In this article we have proposed several algorithms for classification like deep neural network and SVM (Support Vector Machine) algorithm. It also studies comparisons of these methods for classification based on the spam account dataset that is used to select the best.
