FAQing the "Gustavo Ramos" story:

There's a "Gustavo Ramos" on mastodon.cloud and mastodon.network claiming to be a co-founder or advisor to Mastodon. Evidence suggests he's not.

A set of images shared turned out to be copied off the Web:

The profile images claimed from Pinterest (unverified):

@dredmorbius His Twitter bio says "Founder @/EsentiaBrasil, is one of the greatest experts in data marketing, brand reputation, monitoring, research and digital relationship."
@anonorpheus That fits with the first comments made to the mastodon.network Instance, inquiring about Brasilians.
@anonorpheus Yep. Claim was that the headshots came off of Pinterest. I wasn't able to find them.
@dredmorbius IT would appear that either something has been done -- by admins or by the original owner -- or else he's trying to _pretend_ something has been done: https://mastodon.cloud/@gustavoramos
@dredmorbius thank you for clarifying that... someone took access on my .cloud account...

@gustavoramos Was that an account you'd created, or did someone else create it independently of your mastodon.network account?

What I'm getting at is whether the account was /compromised/ or if it was simply created in your name.
