Crypto scams hitting Mastodon

Its no surprise that Crypto Scams are now going to Mastodon.

While I’ve been perusing the timeline this morning, I’ve seen notes from administration staff of several servers and even users saying that they were aware of crypto scams with one posting an image of a spam message claiming that they were mastodon and that they had won Crypto Currency.

While the JRN currently does not currently run a server, I want to pass along the note that I’m seeing notices on my own timeline. I think we should al know what’s going on, even though we may not be affected directly, yet.

Check with your administration and report anything suspicioous or block them. While I thought I would never need to block, I had someone I needed to block who has ben known to be a problem and that’s all I’ll say publicly.

Thanks for reading.
