A new phishing scam seems to have surfaced now with verified users of the social media platform Twitter receiving “Removal Notice” from a verified handle saying that their account is inauthentic. Scammers are sending notifications to users that they have been added to a blacklist and to maintain the blue badge users need to submit an appeal by clicking on a link via NewAppealStart. However, this is a new phishing scam and users should not click on any such links. 5G Scam 2022: Scammers Stealing Sensitive Information in the Name of 5G Conversion, Says Mumbai Police
