I saw on my notification feed in real time this fake account start to build itself by trying to replicate my event feed.

It felt like watching a raccoon dig into a trash can or something.

Nostr's social graph and web of trust helps take care of that, but users need to be aware of fakeries, and clients can help users by providing visual cues regarding clear fakery.

Just amazing to me there are people in the world that create a fake account and then spend their time copying a real account with reposts. 🫠

What level of degeneracy is this?
