Tumblr's Beware!!

All my friends and followers. Twice today I have received messages from a random account giving some spiel about how to gain more followers (wish I took a screenshot now, but oh well) and wanted me to click on a link. Which I didn't. So I don't know what the link does, but it can't be anything good.

So beware. Do NOT click the link!

Edit: just got another one. So here is an example of what it looks like.

⚠️BLUESKY SCAM ALERT!⚠️

Folks, if you have a BlueSky account and you receive a DM or notification that says your account is suspended and asks you to “complete verification” by clicking a link, no matter what you think, no matter what you hear, no matter what happens…DO NOT CLICK IT!!!

This is a phishing bot attempting to steal your login and personal information, including financial data. BlueSky would NEVER contact you this way.

Always be suspicious of urgent messages asking you to click a link.

I love how the spambots are back in business. Soon as they allow some nudity and here comes all the spam for "chat with me here *suspicious link*"

suspicious link in my submission box

so someone just submitted a youtube video to me that is literally sensory hell, there’s a lot of flashing lights and rapid screen changes and i feel like it could definitely be damaging to anyone who doesnt deal well with rapid sensory changes. for me, it gave me a headache and a nosebleed. 

idk if it’s a new clickbait-y, send this link around and see how many people we can fucks with, whatever

the link is https://www.youtube.com/embed/EiRPoAFl-P4 and it shows up to the official music vid for crosa rosa’s sweety, i emailed the address that submitted it & i’ll let yall know if i hear back. 

the email address it was submitted from was [email protected], so just beware if they send you a youtube link.

we're very sorry!!

IF you receive a MESSAGE from us, with a suspicious LINK inside it, please IGNORE it! and DELETE it!

That's not from us... so PLEASE don't open the link! just DELETE it instead!

EKYU is not active for months due to RL troubles (our computer was down, Egaku's neighbours are being uncivil, our comics deadline is overdue, etc etc) anyway, thank you Ipeh (yamineco) for warning us about this! *hugs*
