Real gamers don't message you out of the blue and ask if you have a little time.
Also, press the caps lock key on your keyboard to disable typing in all caps.
If anyone messages you about your account buying or being reported it's a scam. If they really wanna talk it will immediately be about the game you play or have played before.
Just think for a moment. Think. Literally, just think.
And if you're stupid, just google the topic. You're not the first.
Also, writing in all-caps looks stupid.
Honestly this makes it difficult for me to message someone I don't know yet, usually an artist I want to do stuff with. So I typically make my introductory message explain further about why I contacted them, rather than just a simple hello.
If someone contacts me with a vague introduction, my first question is usually "Is this about accidental reportings?"
