Scam bots 

Scam bots are the kinds of bots that go on social media websites and will attempt to you scam in many different kinds of ways including trying to get you to get a free movie, get free currency from a videogame, try to get you to participate in their fake giveaway, will offer free hacks/exploits for a videogame, etc. What all of these kinds of ways have in common is that they will all try to get you to click on their link which a lot of times is malicious and can either be a virus, cookie logger, iq grabber etc. Even some sites like ones that give you some kind of reward from downloading apps, doing surveys etc are also considered a scam because you are earning less money in an hour than you would at a real job and its often kids under 13 participating in these so it would be illegal because you cant collect information from kids under 13. It is widely advised not to click on their links unless you have some kind of protection on you like a virtual machine (VM) or a Virtual Private Network (VPN). These scam bots mostly appear on popular websites such as Twitter, Instagram, Youtube, Reddit, Tiktok etc.
