I have resteemed your post to warn any decent steemian out there.
I too noticed all the greyed out scam posts and immediately realised that it couldn't possibly be from the account owner...she would never post garbage like that. As soon as I saw the title I suspected she'd been hacked.
I daresay we can expect scammers, hackers and the like, there is always that element out there trying to dupe others.
Like you said, if it sounds too good to be true then it is. You won't make any money or gain true followers for zero effort. It isn't all about the number of followers you have....it's about people who enjoy reading your posts, and appreciating them.
If I click on a post, I will read through all of it if it is interesting. Then I will upvote for effort and enjoyment.
I never answer a "I followed you and upvoted you, now follow me" or "Hi, follow me and upvote and I will upvote you"...with a link. Occasionally I have just looked at their posts which are usually resteems of other people's work with no effort of their own.
