mastodon - Link to source

Heads up: the bot farmers are scraping #mastodon and pretending to be the owners of small artist accounts.

I have confirmed with the owner of the mastodon account that it was not them who applied.

A screenshot of a mastodon account request. The username, "caxuwo" and the email domain "akunlemah.biz.I'd" are a dead giveaway that this is a spam account. The description says: "I also do art and music" followed by a mastodon address and bandcamp account.

These accounts usually have suspect usernames, and always provide an email address from a domain wired to a common MX, run on european vps.

The tactics in the description change frequently. This is the first time I've seen a band used as a cover.

They sure didn't bother with whitespace.
