Red Flag: Username composed of "Adjective + Substantive + Digits". This is a clear sign of a bot generated account. If in doubt, check how old the account is, even a company that is going to shit like Reddit wouldn't let a new employee with a new account manage a giveaway.
Looking at the username is a good catch. However, keep in mind that a few people also use this sort of adj+noun+number username, since it's generated by Reddit itself as a suggestion. So it's possible that whoever is running this scam is doing it manually.
