Technology is disclosed for detecting imposters of a brand account. The technology can store a brand profile of the brand account, detect that a message has been publicly communicated to the brand account from a social media account, monitor messages sent publicly to the social media account from other social media accounts by repeatedly comparing the brand profile to metadata of each of the monitored messages, and identify at least one of the other social media accounts as an imposter account based on the comparing. The technology can cease the comparing at predetermined expiration time occurring after the detection of the message that was sent publicly to the brand account.
