PSA: a scammer is impersonating various high-follower accounts. at least half a dozen women have been impersonated so far. the scammer asks you to donate to an email address. if you see an account that looks like me doing that, it's bullshit.

If anyone sees an account that looks like me doing that, it’s definitely real and I have decided to do a heel turn from dumbshit that posts jokes to dumbshit that demands people send me cryptocurrency or something (idk what they’re actually doing I’ve been offline all day)

I almost got caught by one. Thankfully, I double checked the profile.

how high-follower are we talking here like do i have to warn people about this potentially happening to me?

High follower accounts? I'm safe then

i felt it was important for me to post this now, because i *have* encouraged people to donate to organizations in the past. i'm not going to tell you to send money to a random email address.

has bluesky hired a legit moderation team yet? because this is fraud and the userbase should not be doing the job of the ftc

Yeah we've been seeing a lot of account cloning dipshits. Including, but not limited to, a national park and cancer patients.

Bluesky has hit the big time, folks

I see through search that someone hijacked my name (allegedly a furry account with few posts). I don't see any scamming yet but I'll watch it.

I still don't know if that's happened to me or not cause I don't think the people being impersonated can't see them
