This is a very important announcement from the Mods at Saeran Zine. Please do not ignore -
In the past few days, people in the Saeran Zine community have been receiving messages in their Tumblr chat with images that are highly offensive and triggering. They come from random accounts which we believe to belong to one person.
A few of our contributors received those and have tried blocking this person, but they came back with different accounts to send the same or similar things. Even the blog itself has received threats from this person stating that it will continue to target everyone involved in the Saeran Zine, even going as far as targeting supporters. They have in fact contacted a supporter this morning.
Since it started with one of our contributors, we have warned all of them about this incident, telling them to not click on the blurred images from accounts they do not know.
Now we extend this warning to all of you.
We urge you all that if you’re getting DMs with images from an account you do not know do not click on them. Again we reiterate - they are highly offensive and triggering. Our advice, If you happen to get any such messages, is to not engage in contact with them. Below is a list of recent names they have gone by -
saeranchoishouldkillimself
saeranchoishouldkillhimself
moonlightgatorade
sapphicslug
An important note that this list is not exhaustive. This person may create multiple new accounts with which to contact you.
If you receive any messages from such accounts, we recommend the following:
1) Ignore and Report
2) Block and Disable all DMs from Tumblrs you do not follow. [desktop] You can do this by going into Edit Appearance and toggling ON ‘Only allow messages from Tumblrs you follow’, or [mobile] going on general settings → messaging → toggling to ‘Only Tumblrs you follow can message’.
3) Disable anon asks. [desktop] Do this by going into Edit Appearance and toggling OFF ‘Allow anonymous questions’.
4) Disable submissions. [desktop] Do this by going into Edit Appearance and toggling OFF ‘Let people submit posts’, or [mobile] hitting the settings icon and toggling OFF ‘Allow submissions’.
If in doubt, please refer to the Tumblr help guidelines and look in the community section over on: https://tumblr.zendesk.com/hc/en-us
Finally we want to say that we are truly sorry we have make this PSA; we wanted everyone to know and to take special care. We wish for everyone to stay safe. In the meantime, the Zine will still continue with all of our contributors working hard. The Mods are also looking into the matter separately - if you are contacted by someone you do not know with such messages, feel free to DM one of the Mods or email us at [email protected].
Thank you for reading and please spread the word so others can know.
