New scam out there watch your DM's DO NOT RESPOND! Hi? Uh, I reached out to you because I was scammed here on X by someone using a profile similar to yours. Unfortunately, due to the confusion, I mistakenly thought it was you and ended up reporting your account instead of the scammer’s. I even asked my friends to report your account as well. I’m truly sorry for the trouble this has caused it was never my intention This DM is a known scam. It's not a genuine "oops" moment. Why it's a scam: The exact wording ("I was scammed here on X by someone using a profile similar to yours... mistakenly thought it was you and ended up reporting your account... asked my friends to report... truly sorry") is a copy-paste template being used right now by scammers. Multiple people reported the same message in the last few days The goal is almost always the next step: They'll reply asking you to "verify" your account, click a fake X support link, join a Discord "help server," or log in somewhere to "cancel the reports." That's when they steal your credentials or try to phish you. thanks @elonmusk by the way for doing such a "GREAT" job of keeping the bots off this platform
