I've seen talk of the picture being stolen. I'd edit to hide it and the links
All the messages referred to the same links. If those aren’t the scammers account then I don't know what they are getting out of this.
In any case i think this picture has been shared wide enough that even in the case of a ex lover revenge scenario it might be better to raise awareness not to contact or bother any accounts under this name.
Usually the reason a scam keeps going is because its working, which in this case would be compelling people to contact using those links.
I also do hope that who ever is behind it can be traced and called out.
I am not 100% certain on this however. If there is overwhelming support for taking it offline i will.
