What’s the best way to tell if an account is a bot/scammer?

I got a lot of new followers today. Thank you! I noticed a lot of them post the exact same post. Almost like looking at the same account with different names and PFP’s. That seems like too much of a coincidence and a red flag.

Unfortunately, unless I can figure out a way to verify that these accounts are real people and not bots.. I cannot zap in good faith. Right now the easiest way for me to “verify” you’re real is if you’ve put up your own money for a check mark.

I wish it didn’t have to be this way but I’m sure I’ve sent to hardest money to ever exist to scammers and bots and that just doesn’t sit well with me.
