Spoiled Royal Cats👑 @goodpostscats - Tumblr Blog

If only there were some sort of facility where teenagers could be taught new skills.

Anyway, here's a helpful diagram. When I was hit on the temple this was one of the harder things I had to reteach myself. Don't be shamed into not asking questions, and it's alright if it takes you a while to figure it out. Don't let someone make you feel bad for learning new things, or relearning old ones.

Sometimes, unfortunately, you have to teach yourself. YouTube is a valid option.

PSA DO NOT USE PORTABLE GAS HEATERS INDOORS!!!

Hi this psa is brought to you by my boss nearly killing us via carbon monoxide poisoning.

Heaters like this are labelled for Indoor/Outdoor usage, however that indoor label is misleading af.

Indoors in this context means a drafty garage or car port, not your living room or bedroom. Unless the room you're in is well ventilated with fresh air, don't use this fucker indoors.

Please reblog for visibility, this could quite literally save a life.

By the way, if you get something like this in your dm or inbox,

IT IS A SCAM

Hundreds, if not thousands, of Tumblr users are getting THIS VERY SAME MESSAGE about someone “accidentally reporting their blogs by mistake” and the message then asks them to contact them on discord.

What’s going to happen is that these scammers will ask you to change your tumblr email to the new one they give you.

The second you do this, your blog is gone.

Once your tumblr is registered under their email, they have full control of your blog, including your password and even possibly your other personal information.

Here’s the site-wide warning tumblr issued very recently

There are still people who fall victims to this, so please reblog this if you can and be careful

⚠️Scam PSA⚠️

Received a comment like this on one of my recent posts and thought I'd bring some attention to it.

If you receive a message or reply like this, do NOT open that link. This is a scam, and although I have not seen what happens if you click the link, it will most likely result in losing your account. Tumblr Support will never contact you like this, and if you see these please delete, block, and report! Stay safe out there everyone.

🔎Scam Exam(ination)🔍

Seen as: Verify your account / Your account has been locked Scam type(s): Phishing / Credit card stealer.

Hello everyone, this is a post going over the new scam floating around on tumblr where users are receiving DM's (and asks!) containing messages similar to the following:

Your Tumblr account has been temporarily locked due to security measures. Verify your account within 24 hours to stop permanent suspension.

Suspicious activity has been detected on your account! Our team has begun an investigation. To continue using your account, you must complete user verification.

Visual examples of this can be seen here:

Image 1 taken from this post, image 2 taken from this one.

-----

Do note that [tumblr], nor its staff, will ever contact users via asks, comments, or direct messages with issues related to your account.

[tumblr] will only contact you via their official email account that ends in tumblr.com.

[tumblr] will never ask you for money to 'verify' your account, to reactivate your account, to 'fix an issue', or anything similar to the sort.

[tumblr] will never threaten you that if you don't "pay them money" your information will be sent to the police, FBI, ect and you will be arrested for xyz reason.

[tumblr] does not use Discord. Nor do they use any other website than tumblr.com.

If you are contacted by a user who tries to get you to contact a staff member via 'email', a website, on discord, or on another website, this is 100% a scam. Please report the DM, and block the user immediately.

You can also go a step further and report a post the hacked account has made as: something else > unlawful use > phishing, and explain that it is a hacked account trying to perform the <insert scam type> scam.

Providing screenshots is also always a good idea in these situations as well. :)

The website.

Now you may be asking: okay, what does this website take you to?

Is it a copy of tumblr to get you to sign in?

Nope! It's much more sad and.. honestly pathetic than that.

It's a fake AI help bot plus a generic 'there was an error with your account. give us your credit card information now please :)' page.

If you notice- there's nothing that asks for anything related to your tumblr account. It's literally just "give us your credit card and personal information so we can steal your identity- I mean fix the issue."

They also set up a fake 'terms of service' popup as well which.. I'm not even gonna get into that. More or less saying things like 'we need this information to verify your account. This includes your name, address, ect.' One of which includes your government ID btw. NEVER give that to ANYONE for ANY reason.

Final thoughts:

This is a very.. sad, and pathetic attempt at a scam, but I know that people will unfortunately fall for it.

This is honestly no different than those "you have a package from the UPS click here" or "you owe money from a toll both click here" scams you get in texts, and I would think people would know that- by looking at the URL alone, this is not owned nor operated by [tumblr] in any regard.

Please make sure to share this and help others become aware of scams, the more people who learn about scams, the less likely they are to fall for them. :)

Take care, stay safe, and keep helping others.

What to do if your account gets wrongfully terminated

So by now most of you have probably heard that my account was suddenly terminated (aka banned) on Saturday afternoon. I’m back now, and since I had to do some digging into this on my own, I figured I’d make a post for others to reference.

How to tell if you’ve been wrongfully terminated

You will find yourself suddenly locked out of your account. For me, I had just made a post when I got kicked to the login screen. My password wouldn’t work, so I tried to reset it, at which point I got this screen:

Now, if Tumblr legitimately terminated your account - meaning, you broke a rule and they banned you for it - they should send you an email telling you why. So, immediately check your email. If you don’t get anything, it was probably a glitch. These happen shockingly often, so there’s a whole process to it.

How to get your account back

First, submit a support ticket. Tumblr’s support email does NOT work, you MUST go through their site. Select ‘Terminated account’. Write a POLITE message explaining the situation. Describe what you were doing when you suddenly got kicked off, and state that to the best of your knowledge, you haven’t broken any rules, or that if you did, you would be willing to delete the offending posts. Include your url and email.

Check your email. You should immediately get an automatic message saying they’re looking into the problem. If you don’t that means that Tumblr marked your email as spam (because they banned you). If you need to, resend the ticket using a different email address at the bottom. Explain that your account email doesn’t seem to be going through and that’s why you’re using a different one.

Wait. Tumblr Support’s hours of operation are 9-5 EST, Monday through Friday. If, like me, you submitted your ticket on a weekend, you may be in for a wait. If you don’t get a response within 24 hours, DO NOT SEND ANOTHER TICKET, but instead reply to the email they sent you. I’ve seen it advised that you should send another ticket only if the problem isn’t fixed within the week.

Check you url often. Tumblr will likely never respond to your email letting you know what happened or that you’ve been reinstated. Check your url every so often, and if it finally loads as your blog (instead of the ‘There’s nothing here’ screen) you are free to log back in.

And that’s it! If it was a glitch, they SHOULD reinstate your account, but you MUST submit a support ticket letting them know what’s going on.

5 YEAR OLD POST SORTA KINDA SAVES ME FROM ETERNAL CONFUSION YAAAAAHHHH

cerillosvillage

Okay, so, in the years since writing this guide, I’ve both seen some discussion as well as made my own observations that lead me to believe this is not just a glitch with Tumblr’s code.

More likely, if you’re reading this because you got termed, your blog was caught up in a bot dragnet.

Tumblr, like all social media, has bots. And Tumblr also does regular bot purges. It’s strikingly clear to me when these purges happen, because this post will gain a ton of notes in the span of a day. Occasionally, but not always, this will happen shortly after I notice an influx of bot followers.

That means that, for most people experiencing this problem, you are doing something that triggers Tumblr’s automated bot removal process. I cannot say what it is. Social media tends to keep their bot removal criteria vague, so that people scripting bots can’t evade capture.

Which sucks for the innocent human bloggers caught up in the purges, but it also means that if you can get someone to double check your blog, you should be reinstated pretty swiftly.

My blog has not been termed again, but if you check the notes of this post, you will see plenty of people who got their blog back using this process, many of them in the last few months. So these steps should still work.
