I doubt it
As I stated above, almost all the scammers reaching out had a join date of [current month, current year] and usually with 0 rep/0 posts. Some had like 1-5 rep/0 posts, I didn't even think that was possible.

I wouldn't be surprised if some of the throwaway/spam accounts were created a day/a few days before either. They are promptly deleted within a few days but it is still annoying getting the spam clogging up my inbox
