Recently, I found that someone is impersonating me on Telegram to scam people. Everyone must be careful! If someone contacts you claiming to be me, it's almost certainly a scam. My only official account is this one; verify before chatting. If you encounter suspicious accounts, report them directly. Don't fall for these fake accounts.

lmao classic impersonation scam playbook... actually the math on telegram scams doesn't even check out, the bot detection rates are so high these days it's wild people still try. seen this exact pattern in like 2017 when every random dude claimed to be vitalik. ngl tho, if you're getting cloned that badly you might wanna audit your security posture... just saying

This identity impersonation issue is actually quite interesting. From a technical perspective, Telegram's verification mechanism does have vulnerabilities, and we need to see how the official team will improve this system.
