Abstract:
Social media is an online technology and platform that enables people to produce, distribute, and interact with other’s material and ideas. It includes a broad range of websites and programmers that encourage social engagement and communication via various digital channels [1]. False information spreading on social media is a problem with significant consequences. Due to the abstract nature of social media platforms, which has an impact on many areas of society, false information may spread swiftly on them [3]. Common instances of misinformation include misinformation news stories, doctored images and videos, click-bait headlines, conspiracy theories, health misinformation, political propaganda, and pranks [5]. By addressing the issues caused by misleading information on social media and taking action against them, we can work to create a more informed and trustworthy digital environment. We hope to create new research opportunities and enable the extensive research in this field to be promptly used in practical settings. In this research paper we will study about detection of deception on social media and problems related to deception.
