 PSA 🚨- Don’t use Freefrom!

Somehow I’m getting a *ton* of spam about “Freeform” in my main feed, from a ton of nothing accounts that I don’t follow and have no reposts or likes from anyone I follow. Also doesn’t seem to have any hashtags I’ve chosen to follow. So I can’t understand why they would make it to my main feed. 

Any idea how they snuck in? Did they manage to trick some relays or something? I’m on nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 and they seem to be targeting Damus users. But I should only be able to see this in global.

Horrible strategy, imo. If they are legit, they’ve made me think it’s fucking spam trying to steal people’s nsec. Scammy advertising is a huge red flag 🚩 

If they’re dumb enough to do that shit, don’t dare paste anything sensitive into that app until you know more about it.
