What began as a seemingly innocent “new account after suspension” story has rapidly unraveled into one of the most brazen scam operations seen on X in recent months. The account @Blosept_ is now widely confirmed to be a sophisticated impression-farming and follow-back fraud designed to harvest followers before bombarding them with forex scams, adult-site spam, and fake product promotions.
The Fake “736 Million Impression” Suspension Story
Earlier today, @Blosept_ posted dramatic screenshots claiming its “previous” account @Blosept1 (13.7k followers) had been permanently suspended after a single harmless tweet (“What’s the lore behind your header?”) supposedly garnered an astronomical 736 million impressions in just three days.
Independent verification shows this claim is fabricated:
- The viral tweet in question actually received fewer than 300,000 impressions before the account was suspended for spam (not for “too many views”).
- @Blosept_ itself was created in September 2025 and has changed username eight times in the past two months – classic red flags of a recycled scam account.
- A Community Note was added within minutes labeling @Blosept_ an imposter and linking to proof that @Blosept1 was suspended for violating X’s rules on manipulative activity, not for legitimate viral success.
Immediate Pivot to Monetization – Textbook Scam Behavior
Within hours of the fake suspension story, the account executed a perfectly timed switch to aggressive promotion:
- Multiple posts advertising a “budget body spray” for 3,000 (deliberately vague currency) with affiliate-style links.
- A thread containing direct links to adult websites.
- Heavy promotion of a “free forex signals” Telegram channel promising $100–$1,000 daily profits, complete with doctored trading screenshots showing $61k+ fake profits.
These are hallmark tactics of West African and Southeast Asian scam rings that use follow-back schemes to rapidly build audiences, then funnel them into forex/crypto fraud and phishing groups.
Community Calls It Out in Real Time
X users wasted no time dismantling the narrative:
- @_segun: “Your ‘new’ account was created in September, nice try.”
- @Femi_Daveed: “8 username changes in 60 days = professional scammer.”
- @Josephi61965574: “You weren’t suspended for impressions, you were suspended for running scams. Everyone block and report.”
By 11:00 PM GMT, hundreds of replies were warning others, and the account began mass-blocking critics while continuing to spam promotional links.
Why This Particular Scam Is So Dangerous
This isn’t just another spam account – it’s a calculated operation that weaponizes X’s algorithm and users’ sympathy (“help me rebuild after unfair suspension”) to gain trust instantly. Once followers are acquired through the follow-back promise, the account immediately shifts to high-CPM fraud verticals (forex, gambling, adult).
Security researchers tracking similar networks report that accounts using this exact playbook have extracted tens of thousands of dollars from victims in under 48 hours.
What You Should Do Right Now
- Do NOT follow @Blosept_ or any variation.
- If you already followed, unfollow and revoke any app permissions granted via their links.
- Report the account for spam/phishing (Report → Spam → “It’s suspicious or spam”).
- Block immediately to prevent future DM scams.
X has not yet suspended @Blosept_ as of press time, but mass reporting typically triggers automated review within hours.
This incident is a stark reminder that on X in 2025, viral “suspension comeback” stories are the new evolution of the classic Nigerian prince scam – just faster, slicker, and dressed up in 736 million fake impressions.
Stay safe out there.
