"I’ve keep taking screenshots of everyone who’s asked about acquiring my account. One interesting pattern: the majority of these requests come from profiles without any photos. I find it so weird that people are so eager to get a username when they don’t even share content!"

If I had an account with a huge amount of followers, then I would also not initially reach out from that main account in order to negotiate the price.

The same schemes for account promotions likely come from insiders too. As far as I've observed, the messages I get on pretty much every platform are too well organized to be outsiders, some even make it through spam filters. I'm so over social media to be honest... It's a haven for fake vanity points that really doesn't guarantee any sort of real life achievement.
