I'm very happy that these fake accounts are being rooted out, but if you're believing that there'll be no hacks, then you're being mistaken as I have personally seen people having 1000 accounts, and mind you these're not newbie accounts these're aged accounts and many of them have verification done.
I believe that people need to become smarter and not fall for such shady profiles, as buying followers is easy. People really need to do their due diligence, but no one likes to do it.
I would advise you to see if they have a blue tick or no, what is their engagement rate, is it bot comments i.e. same repeated comments, any one you know is following them and most importantly use google search. Always remember if it's to good to be true it's scam till proven otherwise.
Scam is being as usual on crypto world. And that’s very bad bad for this crypto market many newbie loses their interest for this reason. So I think need some step to get rid of scams.
Based on this we need to aware of social media because many types of attracting offers makes us greedy and then when we invest we see it is scam so we should careful about such types of offers.
It is a matter of regret that a huge number of hackers have started bullying and abusing crypto market on tweeter. These hackers are trying to fool the users of crypto coins by offering 10 coins instead of 1 coin. These accounts should be shut down at once.
I’m very happy, this was discovered. This is so annoying that in recent times there is too much scamming on twitter.

As time goes by, these hackers will actually start to increase. What actually is scary that the number of botnet/hackers account found was just the once that are pure bot. Hybrid accounts that are half run by humans have been excluded. Hybrid accounts are more harder to spot and seems more legitimate. Sadly, new users will fall for their scams as they always hunt for giveaways which are the prime method for the hackers to hack the new users.

I am pretty much happy to see this happened. You see a lot of people are faking it on twitter about cryptocurrency. They pretend to be the real one and through their activities they spoil the image of a person or organization.
It is a bad news for cryptocurrency users,as the scammers are becoming stronger day by day. In a study it has been told that at least 15,000 bots are working to scam again.
It is well known that there will be scams in every possible way to hack the currency by the hackers. I’m glad to know that it has been published on twitter.Beware of these hackers and the scams to protect yourself.

Social media accounts are the best way to get people into a big scams easily as the hackers creategake people id's easily and especially in Twitter they create a big scams and because of all this reason twitter recently bans millions of fake profiles and by this way many hackers lost their twitter profiles by which they used to hack people's private information and not they can't do it in a easy way as all the social media companiesare taking strict actions.
Thanks to twitter for that. Las few months was awful and I so irritated because of these scamming efforts.
This is a very good thing to hear. These fake accounts are very annoying and sometimes create confusions. These fake accounts are very harmful for the crypto community and also for the investors. I am very glad that it happened.
15000 hacker's account! This is really alarming. But I am happy that atlast they are identified. The twitter was flooded with such spams and finally we can hope that the situation will improve and cryptocurrency will get rid of hacking to a great extent.
I do not understand from the article, finding accounts helped to find the hackers themselves?
There are a lot of fake company those which are cheating with the people. There are no rules and regulations in the cryptocurrency market so those fake companies can cheat people easily. The agency has done a great job against those fake companies. Thanks a lot to them.
The hackers are the threat to the investors. The investors have provided a lot of money to get the profit from the cryptocurrency. They will feel relieved now. Thanks to the research agencies.
It’s a great work done by the research agency. The people those who have invested money to buy the cryptocoins will be grateful to this work. The agency, as well as the people, should be concerned about the scam.
It’s really great that this is happened. This fake people are really spoiled the reputation of crypto currency. They also prevent the joining of newbies in this market. I am so happy at least they got caught.
