PLEASE READ] SCAMMERS ARE MAKING FAKE USER ACCOUNTS TO IMPERSONATE TRUSTED USERS WHO POST WTS ACCOUNTS. URGENT META.

An example here: https://www.reddit.com/user/acrobetic-aspect-780

u/acrobatic-aspect-780 posted some triggers for sale, so the scammer made a fake account named u/acrobetic-aspect-780 (betic instead of batic) and is messaging people who show interest, acting like the seller, giving them payment info and scamming them.

We've been getting multiple reports per day for this and dozens of fake accounts have already been made/use to scam/banned or nuked, and while Reddit Admins ARE being helpful in suspending these accounts when we report them, WE only find out about them after they've scammed multiple people which doesn't really help anyone.

#WE CAN NOT PROTECT YOU. PLEASE READ USERNAMES CAREFULLY, AND CLICK ON EACH USERNAME TO VERIFY IT LINKS TO THE RIGHT PROFILE BEFORE SENDING MONEY.
