SCAMMER BEHAVIOR ALERT: I am starting to notice that GigBot miniapp is being used to boost the follower numbers of accounts that seem to fit the mode of operation used by pig butchering scammers. I have a background in this area after being an executive of a non profit anti-scam organization for 2 years and being featured in articles, a book and podcasts for my work. Other things to look for on these accounts: - typically use pfp of young, attractive, Asian women - early casts are often copy/paste info from crypto industry news sources - a lot of them actually paid for pro - linked low quality Twitter accounts I would expect these accounts will likely begin to cold direct cast people to develope a relationship and offer investing advice or try to get people to download malware. I'm not sure how Farcaster is dealing with this sort of thing if I report these accounts. Please let me know if I can assist in fighting this trend in any fashion @dwr.eth @v. I apologize for tagging you if are already aware.

I saw them on discord, they send you to a fake stake to earn and stuff like that too here there was a trend about game devs, they were looking for devs for a game with cool docs and so on, then ask you to download the game what is malware

Yea, definitely cannot install anything that a random person in crypto asks you to. Unfortunate, but that's the world we live in.
