Loong’s Profile Used Without Permission
In a Facebook post, Loong claimed someone set up a profile on BitClout to sell tokens using his Twitter account information.
“The site’s creators are anonymous, but I have sent an open tweet out to ask that my name and photo be removed from the site immediately, as I have nothing to do with the platform. It is misleading and done without my permission.” the Singapore PM said, referring to BitClout.
