HOW TO SPOT SCAMMERS, a thread:
-No proofs of winners receiving prizes, and winners being announced properly. If they are never given, it& #39;s likely a scam. If @& #39;s are blocked out, multiple proofs are needed. Stuff onhand isn& #39;t enough.
-Holding a lot of big giveaways in little time

-Claiming to give away "xxx albums or merch of choice!!)
-Never responding to questions or DMs about people& #39;s doubts

-Constantly painting themselves to be a victim of attacks (often for very small or silly reasons...yes this is aimed at asymmetrical face girl)
-Check pictures if they look too good. Look for others& #39; watermarks or do a google search by image to see if it& #39;s stolen from someone

-Block people if you find out they& #39;re scammers....they often change their twitter handles later or come back looking different, but the block still remembers :)
-Only tweeting about themselves, giveaways and "who& #39;s active?", not ever about BTS or whatever group the GAs are for

-If winners that are announced don& #39;t look real, if they only tweeted a few times, are always very recent or have little to no followers. You can always check by looking at the password change numbers/emails of both accounts.
