Honestly debating closing my asks these bots are getting out of hand, and I don't even get enough real asks to make it up.
The bots would probably stop after the war is over so I'd probably reopen them then.
Also, don't misinterpret this, I do support Gaza in the war, but these are obviously bots made from people trying to take advantage of a bad situation, and even if a few are genuine I can't take that risk.
This is what bots do, they take money from the less fortunate until nobody trusts them at all, and move on to the next scam. But then the damage is done, and nobody trusts those actually asking for help.
The same is happening with those bots and scammers on discord posing as artists looking for commissions. Now I don't trust any dms I get even if they look innocent.
This is a big issue. But unless there's some solution I'm not seeing, I'm closing asks on all my accounts until further notice.
