Chapter 1: A Terrifying Discovery

Recently, I had a disturbing experience that left me genuinely unsettled. As someone who thrives on Medium, successfully balancing my role as a stay-at-home mom and a writer, I was not prepared for what happened when I logged in one day. I spotted a comment from someone impersonating Elon Musk, and it was cryptic enough to freak me out.

Initially, I thought it was simple enough to block this impersonator and focus on my meal—still enjoying the wings that a careless employee had served from Wing Stop.

However, a few hours later, I returned to check my notifications—my favorite pastime is engaging in discussions online—and what I found was alarming. Over 20 comments from various accounts on different articles of mine, each featuring nonsensical three-word remarks.

In a panic, I reached out to my friend and fellow Medium writer, Hogan Torah, sharing my bewilderment.

“Dude! What on earth is happening? Am I being hacked? Is this the end for me?!”

Naturally, he responded with a grim “yes.”

It seems I’m not alone in this bizarre situation. Are others experiencing similar issues? What will happen to my Medium earnings? I’m not talking about pocket change here; we’re looking at over $2000. This situation needs urgent attention before I find myself in dire financial straits. Just look at this evidence!

My screenshots reveal the madness.

This is merely a glimpse of the troubling screenshots I have collected.
