       We are aware of a spam campaign of accounts like "supportbot" that attempted to impersonate pixelfed.social staff and get users to click on a malicious link.I (@dansup) was on the way home from FediCon when the reports came in, and I promptly suspended those accounts.*Official communications from pixelfed.social admins/staff will only be sent via email, never DMs or comments.*We are working on improved measures to prevent this type of abuse. Please spread this message!#Pixelfed

       @pixelfed @dansup Scam campaigns in the fedi are so fascinating because they CAN'T be profitable. Targeting a niche network of people who tend to be extremely tech literate?? Whoever does this must be doing it for fun.
