@voltronic noticed a few strange accounts following me on keybase over past few weeks

and some on here pointed out a user was adding CoSo users to a "team"

think it was @0x56 that was asking about that here about the user adding to teams ??

@ecksmc
This is the first I've heard of someone adding CoSo users to KB teams without their knowledge.

@ecksmc
... And if you've only had a few random accounts following you recently, consider yourself lucky. I get one or two new ones every day. I block immediately before then can grub for XLM.

I'm especially disappointed in the devs' attitude toward this.

@voltronic @ecksmc @0x56

yeah, I'm up to about 2 a day...I still only block the ones that actually msg me, but I guess I should start being more vigilant about that...I don't even *like* keybase... 😡

@opie @voltronic @0x56 i have my keybase on various sites on my profile all public so, guess it goes with the territory that i'd get a few werd ones following me BUT not one has msg'd me

i just have a wee look at there other accounts and you can kinda tell if they need blocked or not

@ecksmc
My randos generally don't have other accounts.

I've taken the position recently that if I don't know you from elsewhere, you get blocked. That's how little I trust these new followers there.

@opie @0x56

@voltronic strictly CoSo users i follow on Keybase

yeah some set and link a twitter account they set up and leave active for a day or two also i have noticed

@opie @0x56

@ecksmc
Yep. Clearly a pattern. Many have multiple crypto currencies in their proofs.

@opie @0x56

@opie
The 250 GB free storage is really nice. No one else is giving you anywhere close to that.

The rest of it... I don't know anymore. I feel like they are trying to buy my loyalty with the free money right now.
