I just noticed a spam pattern involving what appear to be bots masquerading as Gaza refugees. I only picked up on this because I saw 2 different accounts post exactly the same reply in this thread;

https://mastodon.social/@Leen_Moeen/115695149753863531

If you click on the Gaza-verified links in the profiles of these accounts, they link to the page for a different account. The same one!

Key takeaway; don't assume an account is legit because there's a Gaza-verified link. Check it!
