I've gotten that too, now that everyone ITT is talking about it. I had no idea what was going on with it at the time and ignored it. Amusing to know that there could be state actors behind it.

The version I got explicitly suggested that I create such an account for the purpose if I don't already have one (I didn't, and of course still don't).

Sorry, "format"?

"format" is what Nigerian scammers call a playbook for each scam type. So a pig butchering "format", romance scam "format", inheritance scam "format", etc.

They offered to help me setup an Upwork account too. Tiresome creeps.
