Got scammed by a smart Pleb for $500 bucks on a account swap
Good old uppercase i instead of an L
If you reading this, you totally deserve the Sats 🤣😂💪

Don’t be sorry, totally my fault was late and I wasn’t paying attention. Pleb offered account username, I’d said sure and got hold of the account pre-payment. Was able to login and change pw, then sent payment 😂🤦♂️

there are also many options in the unicode alphabet like say 'cᴏldcard'...

I don't think Twitter allows more than ASCII in usernames, which is a solid approach. They have display names for that and generally always show the username alongside the display name. Matrix clients tend to only show display name which is horrible and helps people scam others.

l and I being near identical is a font design flaw. It's quite silly that most sans serif fonts are screwed up that way.
There are properly designed sans serif open fonts like fonts.adobe.com/fonts/source-s. It also has a slashed zero option for 0 vs. O too.
