My newest hobby: Reporting IG influencers for Shitcoin Scams
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>influencers shilling shitcoins is nothing new, but it's gotten to a point where i really just cant deal with their scumminess. i'm not sure if my reports actually do anything, but every time i see someone pushing some shitcoin saying that "let's go to the moon!!" or "growing like crazy, get on it now!", i click the extra steps on every single one of their stories to report as a scam. a bit petty, but fuck these people for contributing to rug pulls.</p> <p>not sure if it would violate any rules, but i also wouldn't be opposed to creating a list of accounts that are known to shill - there should be consequences for being a con artist.</p> <p>Edit: holy hell, I logged back in and this got more of a response than I expected. thank you, kind strangers for the upvotes and awards!</p> <p>Because of this response, I plan on combing through these comments and, when I have some free time, figure out the best way to create a shill shame resource for the community. While my singular reports may not achieve much except to briefly calm my rage, perhaps if more of my crypto comrades join in the cause, we might see some change.</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/crisissuit"> /u/crisissuit </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/ou0egw/my_newest_hobby_reporting_ig_influencers_for/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/ou0egw/my_newest_hobby_reporting_ig_influencers_for/">[comments]</a></span>Kind Regards R
