Not only are the scammers doing the fake accounts that say "send .02 BTC and get triple" but apparently now they are either buying verified accounts or hacking them and changing the names and pictures to cryptocurrency people. Now it can actually be hard to tell if someone is scamming.

Really shitty that this is happening. Be careful everyone
Yes,it is a matter of sorrow that someone use this account for this type of work. By the way,twitter is also used in many evil work now. Some people do this but they are really bad people who don't belong this forum. On the other hand, some people also use the same twitter account in the ICO google form when they want to promote a bounty. As an assistant,I saw that now-a-days.
