Squid Game series has become one of the most talked about series of recent times. Squid Game, which is the most watched series of Netflix, also came to the fore with the events after its release.
Previously, it was discussed that the phone number in the series turned out to be real and that the owner of the number was called by thousands of people. Netflix suggested that the owner of the number change the number. Today, there is someone who has a problem because of the name Squid Game.
“I’m Getting Hateful Messages”
Twitch streamer Lydia Ellery, 32, has been playing games for about 10 years under the pseudonym Squid Game. “I’m getting hateful messages from fans of the show and losing jobs because of this name,” the Twitch broadcaster told the BBC, considering changing his nickname.
“People Thought He Made My Account”
Ellery has been using the name Squid Game for 11 years on his Twitch and social media account Instagram, which he broadcasts online.
The broadcaster, who has 42 thousand 300 followers on Twitch, said, “Since the series does not have an official Instagram account, people started tagging my account and texting me, thinking it was my production. I started receiving harassment messages from people. They were angry with me because they were big fans of the series . “They thought I had that name. I had to turn off notifications on Instagram.”
“They Tried To Hack My Account”
After the drama aired, the actor’s account became so popular that people caused his account to be locked and he had to reset his password many times: “People were complaining about my account and many people tried to hack my account. Emails kept coming about people trying to log into my account. It was very tiring. ”
“Companies Don’t Give Me A Job”
The series didn’t just cause the publisher to have these problems. He also damaged the brand name he worked for for 10 years: “My search engine optimization (SEO) has been turned upside down. If you search for me and the company I founded on the internet, all you see is content related to the series. The companies I’ve worked for don’t give me a job. I recently got a job. That’s why my offer was turned down. The company said it was because of Squid Game production. The show is pretty violent, so that could be it.”
