Twitter Influencer pulled a Mike Ross

In today’s edition, we uncover the shocking tale of a fake Twitter influencer, celebrate the LinkedIn Influencer of the Year, and explore how niche creators on LinkedIn are earning their top voice badges.

Fake Twitter Influencer Exposed

The case of FinTech influencer Ravisutanjani Kumar has sent shockwaves through social media, leaving his followers in disbelief. A Twitter account under the handle @SatarkAadmi, promoting the hashtag #WearMaskSaveLives, recently unveiled a thread titled "Unmasking the Enigma: Who is the Real Ravisutanjani?"

The revelations in this thread exposed a web of deceit surrounding Kumar, leading to the eventual removal of his Twitter and LinkedIn profiles.

Kumar had portrayed himself as a computer engineering graduate from IIIT Allahabad, but the truth was far different. He was, in fact, a graduate from a government ITI in Mirzapur, having specialized as a "Wireman." @SatarkAadmi's investigation further unraveled a series of other fabricated degrees and positions that Kumar had falsely laid claim to.

In a desperate attempt to salvage his reputation, Ravisutanjani Kumar posted a detailed defense on Twitter. However, faced with mounting evidence and public scrutiny, he eventually chose to delete his social media presence altogether.

This incident serves as a stark reminder of the prevalent issue of deception within the realm of social media, urging users to exercise caution and conduct thorough fact-checks on the information they encounter.
