Unfortunately, Twitter is now free of censorship and is full of bots, spam, and chaos.
It's going to make things worst and that's why everyone needs to be more careful when they're focused on the airdrops there. Good thing that account was already flagged down but we don't know if another account will emerge and will try to verify itself and will make another looking legitimate airdrop from SEI or any other project that has taken the spotlight lately because of how successful their launching was. Having these criteria for having a blue checkmark makes it easier for these scammers to stay on this platform, X/Twitter.

Eligibility criteria for the blue checkmark
Only accounts actively subscribed to X Premium are eligible to receive the blue checkmark.
Our team uses an eligibility criteria on when the checkmark is given to ensure we maintain the integrity of the platform. Your account must meet the following criteria to receive or retain the blue checkmark:
Complete: Your account must have a display name and profile photo
Active use: Your account must be active in the past 30 days to subscribe to X Premium
Security: Your account must have a confirmed phone number
Non-Deceptive:
Your account must have no recent changes to your profile photo, display name, or username (@handle)
Your account must have no signs of being misleading or deceptive
Your account must have no signs of engaging in platform manipulation and spam
As we look at the bottom part of non-deceptive. I wonder if they really are filtering all of these subscribed to their premium/blue checkmark. Because it looks easy for them to get verified and this is giving the idea for other scammers that they can do that and imitate and fool people with the use of other known projects.
