Twitter suspends the ability to buy verification after the chaos of fake accounts

It has been possible to see in recent days how the disappearance of a reliable way to identify an official account from a parody account has caused severe havoc on Twitter, something that could potentially end in the form of severe problems for Twitter and Elon Muskpromoter of the new measure in order to avoid having to depend on advertisers.

Elon Musk’s idea, after the dismissal of 50 percent of the company’s workers, is to not depend on advertisers, in addition to saving up to 3 million dollars a day in operating costs. However, he knows he needs to raise money from some other source, which is why Twitter Blue has been increased in price, adding the coveted check mark.

Now, multitudes of users are creating fake accounts representing companies and paying the $8 for the verification mark, after which statements are being made on behalf of companiesand is even dating other accounts representing the same companies, “apologizing for the misunderstanding of a fake account.”

That is why, for now, Twitter has disabled the ability to purchase new Blue subscriptions, so we should see exponentially fewer verified fake accounts.
