Someone Has Created A Fake Account as Walter M Ches"t"nut. It is Not Me

I thought I should alert my readers that someone has created a fake account using my image but inserting a “t” into my last name. My name is Chesnut. The fake account is using Chestnut. Apparently this account is asking people to txt them, including myself.

Walt, military people say “you only get flak when you’re OVER TARGET.” Keep fighting! We’ve “got your six.”

Last night, someone messaged me claiming to be Tim Robbins writing from his private Twitter account (@TimRobishere, which appeared legitimate as the start date was 2009, and the account has around 3,500 followers). This wasn't entirely far-fetched because Tim Robbins (@TimRobbins1) follows me on Twitter, and we have exchanged private messages. I asked the imposter to paste in the last message I had sent him on his other account (as well as an earlier message Tim had sent me), and he acted like it was going to be too hard because there are thousands of messages there and it's managed by The Actors' Gang. I then said I would send a new message, and he could respond at both accounts to verify it was him. That shut him up. Real Tim Robbins informed me it wasn't him, so I reported it as an impersonation account. Hope he doesn't trick people into giving him sensitive information as the first thing he asked me is where I'm located.
