“He has been harassing me for a while. It’s an ongoing thing,” she said. “He’s been actively tweeting about dating me.”
“I don’t know if he’s encouraging people to do this, but there’s been a small contingent of trolls telling me to sleep with him — but not that politely,” she sai
He then attempted to slide in her DMs.

After being called out by Duca, Shkreli continued his trolling until he got the banhammer from Twitter.
While Shkreli was trying to be funny but he just comes off as a weirdo slime ball.
