Fast Company reported A Customers Experience On X:
Within a few minutes, I’d had my query answered by the official X (formerly Twitter) account of JetBlue, but I’d also been inundated with likes, follows, and replies from nearly 20 accounts—each of which boasted the same profile photo and bio as the official account, and handles with some variation on @Jetblue.
In their replies, the accounts claimed to be sending tweets from JetBlue employees, and asked for me to DM them my WhatsApp number to resolve the issue. Turns out, what I experienced is a relatively new but increasingly common grift happening on X, seemingly thanks to the site's fragmented verification process.
