User @trevorwood222 warns that scammers impersonating journalists use Calendly booking links to phish people in the AI community. When asked for a Bloomberg email, the imposter ghosted; Scobleizer confirmed he was also targeted and found no evidence the person ever worked at Bloomberg. The advice: real journalists don't send Calendly links — treat such requests as phishing.
