yes, so many scammers appear every day more and more. and it is explainable because where the big money there the higher temptation appears. I remember the situation with the fake accounts of some famous people, these accounts in Twitter were used in order to attract the potential investors to some projects, it worked till the moment when the real people appeared and tell that these accounts were not their. for example some of such accounts was the Buterins, and it looked so real. It was a real scam.

I don't understand how people can fall into this scam, did they really believe that Elon Musk was going to send them 10 BTC so easily? It's true that this time the scam was much more elaborated since there were some hacked verified accounts involved, but using common sense should have been enough.

Yes , I think. That's the reason why many people get into this, because they knew Elon Musk as a rich person and they knew that Mr.Musk also believe in crytpo and they saw a proof of received by the other account

Sure, but they forgot that rich people never give away anything. Besides, they should have suspected something was wrong when they were asked to send some BTC before receiving the gift.

People are to blame for giving money to scammers.There are many individual accounts on the Internet that pretend to be famous personalities.You have to be very careful when giving them money.



And the error came from them. They themselves are not thoroughly tested and easily scammed by scammers. In this world there is nothing free and maybe after this they will have a little experience to stay away from it

There are tons of such accounts in twitter. I believe we have to be extremely careful to avoid being scammed. Never send coins to get more coins, this is obviously a frequently used method to scam people.

Twitter wages war against fraudsters. I think too many users have been duped. We are also blocked with our spam. I think this is due to users who use bots for mass spam.

so many scammers in the internet world, so it's easy to do it to various social networks, including twitter. Need to increase strong security. Because of the many fake accounts and fraudsters who use Twitter, Twitter suspends many Twitter accounts. The unfavorable reason is that many fraudulent Twitter accounts.
Which is right, twitter suspend many accounts due to this type of activities, a lots of fake accounts and scam projects was been created in a daily process, I guess we need to have extra securities and precautions in order to protect your investment, its better to investigate the legitimacy of those people who are
sharing things especially if its around the internet we can't have any assurance and the risk factors are really high.

Crazy idea, but I still think that not everything is so scary, of course, there are a lot of projects today, much more than last year, but if you noticed, the ICO process as a whole was different from what it was in 2017.

A classic scam with the need to send bitcoin to verify your address. i dont think that this was basis for twitter to suspend crypto accounts.

I think it is unjust to block an account for the reposts of a crypto company that is not blocked! (
This is at least not logical!

I think you should make the title clearer. Faket account is a problem we encounter daily, In my opinion it is not too difficult to distinguish these fake accounts with the official account. The main account of the celebrities has the stamp of Twitter.

Currently there are so many twitter accounts that have been banned, I also experienced it until I made an appeal to Twitter, but if I have to mention that Twitter is a scam I don't really agree, because until now Twitter still allows bounty campaigns on their platforms

With such a widespread reach out and audience, it gets catchy to narrow down the fake accounts, until they get obviously suspicious.
I think we as users must be proactive and not easily fall for such news and/or accounts.
