This will be a quick post. We have received a phishing mail to our [email protected] mail address telling that they are "lemmy.world Security Team", telling that they will "disconnect" your account from our instance. This is ofc, not us. Do not fall for it! The attached image is how the mail looks like.

Isnβt it a waste of time trying these scams on lemmy.
I could be wrong here but I would argue the vast majority of users are somewhat tech proficient since itβs not reached mass adoption and the user base is well, just us nerds?
Well one of the best scam hunters on YouTube lost his account to a scam. So not really a waste of time, trying Lemmy.
That sounds so crazy, who was it? What happened?
Looks like he was tricked into deleting his own channel by someone masquerading as YouTube support. https://futurism.com/the-byte/youtube-channel-hunts-scammers-gets-scammed
