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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.
