Singer Jang Yoon-jung recently warned about SNS accounts impersonating her. On the 9th, Jang Yoon-jung posted on her personal SNS, "There are people impersonating me and sending DMs to my followers these days," adding, "It seems necessary to be cautious."

As impersonation accounts of celebrities have been active on social networking services recently, causing increasing damage cases, Jang Yoon-jung also took direct action to inform the public. Besides Jang Yoon-jung, several other celebrities have also reported SNS impersonation damages and requested caution.

Celebrity impersonation incidents increased significantly last year. In particular, nationwide 'no-show' scams occurred where perpetrators impersonated employees of famous singers' agencies and demanded money from restaurant owners by baiting large-scale reservations. The criminals used sophisticated methods such as forging actual agency business cards and liquor company representative cards that could be found through portal site searches and sending them. Restaurant owner A transferred 30 million won as payment for liquor under the pretext of a group reservation, but after the deposit, the criminals cut off contact. The agency confirmed that both the restaurant reservation and business cards were fake.

Impersonation crimes are expanding beyond celebrities to various figures such as politicians and public officials. It was also pointed out that tracking and arresting are difficult due to non-face-to-face methods using burner phones and text messages, as well as the use of alias accounts. A police official stated, "It is a clear scam method when celebrities or public institutions mention specific companies and demand advance payments," and urged, "If there is a monetary request during group reservations, you must directly contact the relevant agency to verify the facts."

Meanwhile, Jang Yoon-jung married Do Kyung-wan in 2013 and has one son and one daughter. She communicates with fans by sharing family stories through YouTube.
