RE: Quick Thought on Steemit Catfish

@Dan It is fine to say that people shouldn't fret over fraudulent posts but all they do is serve to make the platform look bad and discourage new people from being honest and posting the truth.

If I'm a newbie and I find that people can profit from posting fake stories why wouldn't I just copy the same pattern for a big payout?

This will just heighten the public perception of everything cryptocurrency related being either "shady" or at best on the boundaries of legality.

The community doesn't need any more of that kind of press.
