looks like people are hijacking normal looking accounts and then doing a DM scam to get others to expose their accounts too
they start with "Hello can i have a minute please? I really do have a concern" and then continue saying they reported you for getting *them* hacked
stay safe out there

this is how it works on steam.
It's essentially an online equivalent of kidnapping someone's friends/family in order to get them to obey some command, whether a ransom or whatever.
They claim they thought you sent them a link that compromised their account and they reported you for it
They then realized their mistake but bsky mods won't listen. So they need your help to "take action" on your behalf
This was rampant on TwitterX and Steam and Discord.
With bots and scammers and trolls and bigots and harassment campaigns moving to BlueSky, it was inevitable some of them would try the same shit here.
If you want to talk about something, say what it is, or else you're getting ignored sorry.
