      @poisonpunk @stux That’s very specific. And we never reach out to anyone to ask them to get verified.

      (And I wish we didn’t need it.)

        @stux @aral I literally just got one from an account claiming to be mastodon staff, where they said they had noticed my posts are getting attention and offering me an opportunity for monetization, with a link to click on. I laughed and laughed and hit β€œreport user,” because lol.
