RE: Potential scammer reported - @minnowpond

in #steemit7 years ago

Why not contact the owner first before posting something like this?

Based on my experience, "scammers" usually do not respond to contact attempts. It is often a waste of time, and during that time, they continue their misdeeds.

It is also for this reason that I use the "potential" qualifier if it is not totally proven.

As you can see in the comments, @minnowpond has reacted quickly and I think we will be able to solve this issue.

Sort:  

And non-scammers would respond quickly. Faulty logic there, you have assumed the worst and treated minnowpond accordingly. You can't have it both ways, either it was proven it or it was not.

Faulty logic ... either it was proven it or it was not.

IMHO, the world is not as binary as this. Many "resteem service providers" are in between.

The aim of such post is to warn people and help them forge their own opinion. As the popular saying goes, "prevention is better than cure".
