I am just surprised that these tweets actually worked.
It would have made total sense if the hijacked accounts suggested doubling others' donations to certain charities, as we have seen played out in the beginning of June. In fact, the first time I saw those tweets, with their "giving back" theme, I misread them as meaning exactly that, doubling donations to charities. But instead they were proposing to immediately send the money back, doubled. Asking people for money first is hardly a believable "giving back" offer; it should have raised so many eyebrows and red flags. Especially coming from Biden's account — I might almost believe it coming from Elon, but for Biden that would be completely out of character; he wouldn't have the imagination.
