Macroeconomist and analyst Henrik Zeberg often comments on economic development on a large scale, sometimes sharing his views on Bitcoin price movements, and has issued important fraud alerts.
Fraud warning from Henrik Zerg
Zeberg has found a disguiser who is forgeing his accounts on social media giant X. Apparently, this is not the first one. “Another con man!” he tweeted and shared a screenshot of the con man who impersonated him by adding a single character to his name and setting up a fake X account that is different from the real one.
The commentator pointed out some strange details. The con artist accused the former analyst of being a con artist as well. However, the difference between the two accounts is that accounts reporting today’s scammers have over 177,000 followers, while the reported X profiles “pride” only under 1,000.
Another con man!

CZ says scammers are currently targeting information websites, warning the community:
