I don’t know if it’s a new surge of bots and scams, but lately there are a lot of blogs who reblog people’s posts with “tap here for more” link in big text. I looked through some of these blogs, and their blogs are just them reblogging a whole lot of people’s posts with “tap here for more” link. I obviously did not click on the link.
another thing I’d like to add is that these blogs aren’t recently made or empty blogs with no pfp or header. they appear to be normal blogs with pfp, headers, names, bios, fandoms, interests and such. so my guess is that they were genuine, legit blogs before they were hacked. and the hackers use their blogs to spread their link, and potentially scam more people, whatever the link is.
unfortunately it is a well known tactic bots and scammers use — hacking an innocent blog, because they know it’s more convincing than creating a new and empty blogs like before, and then using the blog to help them scam more people.
be careful y’all. if someone dm or inboxes you “I have something important to tell you 🥺 it’s about your account” block and report them. that’s a scam. they will try to convince you they accidentally reported your blog because they mistook you for someone else who scammed them, they may even tell you they have “already gave your blog to the police” then they’ll say something about “don’t worry. you can contact this person *gives you a sketchy discord link*” then “this person” will claim they work with tumblr (lie) and they will tell you you have to change the email you associate your tumblr with to the new one they give you. the second you do that, your entire account is gone. if you change the email you associate your tumblr with to their email, they have full control of your account. that’s how they hack people.
