“Not everyone on the list does undisclosed shills but the vast majority of names I see on there do,” said zachxbt.
Included in the list of celebrities and influencers who do not disclose paid endorsements of such projects was Lindsay Lohan. Lohan reportedly charges $25,000 for a single tweet, $20,000 for a retweet, and $35,000 for a package deal of two tweets and one retweet.
According to zachxbt, Lohan’s undisclosed shill tweets have resulted in “wrecking people.” In February, Lohan told her 8 million followers to check out an obscure project called MetaNetflix which saw its value plummet shortly after.
