There's been a lot of impersonated accounts popping up lately, so it doesn't surprise me they've opted to do something like this.

Oh yeah, they are literally everywhere. And a lot of them are impersonating people that haven't switched from Twitter yet to take advantage of it specifically.

Bluesky already has domain based verification which solves that perfectly, I guess people just don't want to use it.
