We're as frustrated as everyone else with these phishing attacks. mastodon.social had new sign-ups in approval mode this week to limit the impact, but offenders targeted other instances and compromised existing accounts. We take the problem very seriously; we're suspending and blocking as quickly as possible, as well as actively working on countermeasures.
teamjybyky@staff I can't access the account, and it's been taken over by someone else. I've complained to the service, but I haven't received a response.

The account was taken over by an irresponsible party.
