Please read! I'm making this post to bring attention to a dangerous scam that my partner @remalicious and another Newgrounder by the name of @Tappa0410 was recently a victim of. Their Bluesky accounts are hacked so please do not respond to any DMs on Bluesky from the users remalicious.newgrounds.com and tappa-atarimaep.bsky.social, and report both accounts!
Rem received a message on their Bluesky from Tappa's hacked account telling them that they "accidentally" reported their account because someone was pretending to be them and was scamming people and that they had the "proof" to show them, but they needed their discord to send the information. Rem agreed and added them on discord (another fake account impersonating Tappa) and was sent the information shown below in the screenshots.
The imposter encouraged Rem to reach out to "Bluesky Support", which was another discord account. That account then began to ask Rem for personal information, including their email and bank information. Rem handed over their email address and then was pressured to change the email on their bluesky account to one that the scammer made.
Rem's Bluesky is now hacked and is messaging more people in our community. I've made a post about this on Bluesky and we encourage all of you to PLEASE repost my post, mass report this account and shut this account down before more people are affected! Do NOT answer any DMs from either of these users on Bluesky and be weary of any suspicious similar messages. Thank you guys for reading and stay safe!!
