🚨 Scam Alert: "Verify your Fedi account" Phishing Attempt 🚧

Attention everyone on Mastodon! There's a scam making the rounds where malicious actors impersonate moderators or admins. They send private messages or make posts that mimic notifications, claiming that your account needs verification. These messages often include a link for you to "complete the verification process."

⚠️ This is a Scam!

Your server admin will never ask you to click a link to verify your account.
No other admin from any other server will either, even if they appear to be part of the main Mastodon team.
If your account is suspended, you won't receive a message about it. Instead, you'll see a notification upon logging in that your account is temporarily suspended.

How to Identify the Scam:

Fake admin accounts often use names containing "moderator" or "admin," but this doesn't mean they are legitimate.
Legitimate admins or instance owners usually have a badge or marking on their profile indicating their role.

What to Do:

If you receive a message or post urging you to click a link to verify your account, report it immediately.
If you have any doubts about your account status, contact your server admin or moderation team directly.
To verify the authenticity of an admin or instance owner, visit the "About" page of your instance. This page typically lists contact information for the real team administering your instance.
Always be cautious when interacting with accounts claiming to be from Mastodon or your instance's admin team.

Important Reminder:

Mastodon does not perform age verification. If you receive a message or post claiming to be from Mastodon or your instance's admin team, always verify its authenticity before taking any action.

Reporting the Scam:

If you encounter this scam, report it to your instance's admin team and use relevant tags, such as #FediBlock, to help raise awareness.

Personal Note:

I'm not a cybersecurity expert, but I find this new scam in the Fediverse quite interesting. If you feel like sharing your experiences with me, I would appreciate it! I'm looking to collect cases and get a broader view of this phishing attack. Maybe I'll even try to write a report about it. Feel free to tag me in any relevant posts.

Let's stay vigilant and help each other stay safe online!

@eriner The reason to pay attention to those places is people living there think they're full of good ideas. And ideas spread.

Just like WA. The "Good Ideas" of Seattle would spread to Olympia (the capitol) and be passed on to the entire State.
Enough of a strong hold, and all these "Good Ideas" spread to your hometown.

🚨 Beware! Hackers are now sending phishing emails from “no-reply@google.com” by abusing Google’s OAuth apps & notification system. These legit-looking emails can trick even tech-savvy users! 🕵️‍♂️ Always double-check links & sender details. Stay safe online! 🔐 #CyberSecurity #PhishingAlert #Google #InfoSec #StaySafe #TechRadar

Aren't you tired of being sick and tired?

COVID-19 isn't just another cold. It can cause lasting harm even without symptoms. We have the power to break this cycle. Wearing a high-quality mask in public drastically reduces infections, protecting you and your community.

Together, we can stop the spread. Mask up, stay safe, and reclaim your health.

This is my first proper run on endgame crafting and gathering gear, where I am aiming to acquire and make everything myself.

I've almost got the basic L100 craftable set done (iL690) and I added scrip hatchet and pickaxe today. I even did the annoying Ephemeral Nodes for Aethersand so I have enough for iL700 craftable gear and crafting off-hands.

But it's relaxing and you see different zones. So it's repetitive, but doesn't feel like grinding.

Managed to do a bit of Spring Festival on my second favourite #LOTRO female character, my wee River Hobbit.

I don't need many things from it, and I'm not short of Figments of Splendour so I'm just doing the event for fun when I feel like it.

Which, to be honest, is what #gaming should be, yes? Even dailies/repetitive content/gearing progression. You can "grind" slower and enjoy it more, I reckon.

For now, g'night // #StaySafe // #BeKind

I hurt too much for alt text, sorry.

But I did some Spring Festival in #LOTRO and started my L100 crafting/gathering gearing properly in #FFXIV tonight.

I think a lot of my FF14 time will be crafting and gathering for a bit. It's relaxing, and I like the gradual progression.

I'm not going to get on the conveyer belt speed of the latest stuff, but actually take my time to do aspects I usually skip.

Anyway, I need sleep.

G'night all // #StaySafe // #BeKind

I finally got my first run of #LOTRO Spring Festival in. My main character still hadn't transferred (I have a help ticket now) so I played it on one of my lowbie River Hobbits.

Today has been difficult. But most of the Spring work is done. Tomorrow I have to focus on self-care and be less sociable, because I need to recover.

Thank you for being patient. I beat myself up more than other people (no one directed annoyance at me directly).

Thank you.

Well, I managed to clear all the birds in the Lone-lands, though it took over 30 attempts to get the Rarest Bird here.

Tomorrow is Spring Fest start, so apologies to non-LOTROers if I post more than normal about #LOTRO.

I also need to re-formulate how to balance my woodwork and fiction against giving Patreon folk new content. But I'll get through Spring guide updates first.

Well, I had one in-game day in the rain and a second in-game day in rain AND thunder. Hey-ho.

I made some progress in "Before the Shadow" despite some rude Wraiths spoiling it all. I am under-geared for Wraiths, though, so they're tricky.

I'm used to FF14 late at night, but playing #LOTRO was needed tonight. Sleep time shortly, though.

G'night all // #StaySafe // #BeKind

Struggled to settle because my mind wouldn't. But I ran Little Ladies' Day in #FFXIV on my main character. Then my Minimog this week is the Glimmerscale fish, so looked that up:

ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wik

(you don't need to do the "rest + "chum" combo. Debatable if chum helps. I did it and it worked, but that's not proof)

I should get my first main reward from the Moogle event this week.

Off to sleep at a better time than last night.

Tip for those of you with go bags, retreat rooms, quick open lock boxes, etc. All modern mobile phones can make 911 calls without a valid SIM or paid service. (999 in the UK as well?)

Keep an old, beater phone on a charger with that bag or in that space. If stuff happens you may not have access to your regular phone and/or you'll have one you can hand to someone else for emergency calls.

I was supposed to be reigning in my bed times again. But attempting to get into transferring my LOTRO characters has set me back.

On the plus side #Firefox's new TOU only affects the app, not the code other browsers fork from. So I've nearly set up #ZenBrowser. It took ages because of the number of pages I have in container groups.

The only thing that'll take adjusting to is the vertical tabs, but it's smooth on everything else so far.

Last update: I've added a few different body shapes to the section about the new #FFXIV Little Ladies' Day glamour. Done so far:

→ Female Miqo'te
→ Female Lalafell
→ Male Hyur
→ Male Hrothgar

fibrojedi.me.uk/ffxiv/ffxiv-li

If this section doesn't show for you, do a hard refresh as the old version is probably cached.

Heading off for meds and rest now. And sleep.

Have a wave from someone who has 10000% more confidence than I have.

#StaySafe // #BeKind

I had some #MiqoteTime (I need to go back to using that hashtag again) doing a few quests on my HeavensWard character. I still love the music in the Dravanian Forelands.

Anyway, tomorrow's Sunday so I'll be off socials til Monday.

Monday is Little Ladies Day in FFXIV, and reserving 3 character names on the new LOTRO servers. And housework, a lot of housework.

Til then,

G'night // #StaySafe // #BeKind
