A man has claimed that he was "stereotyped" by Instagram after a prompt was allegedly sent to someone who tried sending him a message.
Daniel Adebowale took to Facebook to share a screenshot of a prompt Instagram sent to someone who sent him a direct message on the platform.
The prompt from Instagram to the sender reads: "Daniel appears to be in Nigeria."
It further states: "Don't share personal info with people that you don't know. Requests for photos or money from strangers may be signs of a scam".
Calling out Instagram, Daniel Adebowale wrote: "Nah, this is so disheartening and sad
"Why would instagram send this prompt to someone that messages me
"Imagine a clients messages me and they see this, major turn off if they were skeptical initially
"Major stereotype from instagram."
