Trump announced the press conference after writing a series of tweets making unsubstantiated allegations of illegality in the voting process in states like Pennsylvania. All four tweets were labelled as disputed and potentially misleading by Twitter.
The president and his team have launched legal challenges in several battleground states, some of which have already been dismissed.
One "Stop the Steal" group that attracted more than 360,000 members in a matter of hours was taken down by Facebook because of calls for violence.
Administrators of some of the new groups are warning their members to avoid using threatening or violent language.
Some have frequently changed their names, apparently in an attempt to avoid detection or removal by Facebook.
At least two "Stop the Steal" websites have also been created since election day to register volunteer activists, who are also trying to organist rallies in front of every US state capitol on Saturday.
