[EDIT]: This is actually a scam.

Not sure if this is normal, created a sub 4 months ago. But yesterday I signed into Reddit to check if an admin has replied to a request I made and saw this, which was a little bizarre to me with everything going on…

    1. An official rep for Reddit wouldn’t have a randomly generated name, and, as stated already, it’d most likely be red with an A next to it.

    2)Do not click links in messages like that unless you are absolutely certain you know who it’s from. Even accounts you trust can be hacked. If it seems weird at all, do not click it. If you really want to know more about the link, just hover over it and a URL will pop up in your browser with the link destination. Most likely it will be using a link shortener (because that’s what a scammer would do), but it may give you some more information.
