I interrupt your regularly scheduled program...

to make you aware of a SCAM which may seem to come from my account and to be wary...

TL;DR: If you get a DM from me about how I need you to contact Twitter (or more unlikely, Bluesky) support to fix an issue with a “misreported account” - NONE OF IT IS REAL. It is NOT me. It’s a SCAM, and stay away. If you need to contact me to ask me about anything that seems suspicious, leave me a comment here or contact me on chat or at my email.

Starting now, my Twitter account (@Tennantcy_2_Act) is NO LONGER MINE. Do not engage with it.

Late last evening I fell victim to a scam circulating on Twitter and (I hear, though I haven’t seen it firsthand) on Bluesky. It’s one that started with a DM I received on Twitter (which I rarely use, I’m on Bluesky about 95% of the time) from someone I’d communicated with before:

At the outset nothing seemed suspicious…only rather annoying. It seemed I needed to fix it with Twitter support guy named Cameron Vafaey.

and

I’m just warning everyone that NONE OF THIS IS REAL.

I got taken....not for very much, it certainly won’t injure anything but my pride. So lesson learned, but I will do everything I can to spread the word.

So that’s what this is. Heads up, everyone!
