How hard would it be for Twitter to smuggle invisible watermarks into tweets that could be used to verify a screenshotted tweet's veracity, and provide a service so that third parties could check and block fake screenshots? Probably not that hard.https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-53433894 …

Yeah, just requires extra vigilance. But I guess the people who fall for these wouldn't be paying attention anyway. I remember reading somewhere that the reason scam emails are riddled with typos is precisely to weed out people who wouldn't fall for them in the first place.
Yeah, I think it's a useful filter. Fraudsters need to optimise their workflows too.
