This is a scam that’s prevalent on Bluesky so please be aware.
The scammer will copy an artist’s profile & create a nearly identical handle. They block the artist & reach out to their followers asking for money.
If you’re contacted by a scammer let the artist know then report the scammer please.

Also!! In case you didn’t know! You can put tags on your profile and when tap and hold on them- you can search posts of the users profile with these tags :3!! It’s very handy :D

So a LOT of people who have moved onto bluesky don't realize that the best way for your old friends on twitter to find you is to:
- put your bluesky address in your twitter profile
and/or
- use your old twitter name here
This is how the "sky follower bridge" can help people find you
pass this on
