Screenshot of a thread. In the first post, someone posts a strangely-formatted scam reply to Eugen, saying that there is a "minor irregularity" with Eugen's account, and that Eugen must verify to restore full visibility.  Subsequent posts call the scammer out.  The scammer replies with "sorry bro have a good day".

They tried to scam Mastodon's creator on Mastodon...

They can't ban him. He is the main developer.

You can't seriously think that was the question being asked. (But thanks for the chuckle)

That should have been your first clue they were kidding, shouldn't've it?
