Just a heads up in case anyone else receives a similar message.

I was recently contacted by someone claiming they had mistakenly reported my account because they believed I was involved in a scam. They later shared a screenshot of what appeared to be a Tumblr support email featuring my username and profile picture.

After looking into it and contacting Tumblr Support, this appears to be a known phishing scam that Tumblr is already aware of.

The scam may involve:

Someone claiming they accidentally reported your account

Screenshots of fake Tumblr emails showing your username/blog

Claims that your account is under investigation, at risk of deletion, or needs to be "verified"

Requests to contact a supposed Tumblr support agent, often on Discord or another platform

If you receive a message like this, please be cautious and do not provide your login information or contact unofficial support accounts.

In my case, another mutual received the exact same message from the same user, which suggests the account may have been compromised and is being used to spread the scam.

If you're unsure whether a message is legitimate, contact Tumblr Support directly through official channels.

Please reblog even if this hasn't happened to you. A mutual and I encountered the same scam account, so there are likely more people receiving these messages.
