Los apodados "cibermatones" emplean sus nuevas identidades para acosar a los amigos de la cuenta a la que han accedido, mantener discusiones o sencillamente molestar. De hecho, estos atacantes suelen también dedicar tiempo a su "golpe": estudian a la víctima, los amigos que tiene agregados en su lista de contactos, sus fotos... De esta forma, se introducen en su círculo para intentar, más adelante, hacerse pasar por amigo o conocido hasta conseguir robarle su cuenta. 3, record 1, Spanish, - cibermat%C3%B3n
