So, my take is that when they get a few zaps and reposts from established accounts, it encourage others to give even more zaps and reposts, because “hey look, everyone else is doing it so it must be legit.” Meanwhile they don’t engage back with replies, they don’t follow anyone back. It could be an easy couple of bucks worth of sats by the time their post loses steam. Wash, rinse, repeat with the next accounts. They’re not gonna make a living that way, but it’s a waste of everyone’s time and sats and sends the wrong message.
