Finally, all accounts stopped posting for this campaign, so even these dates would be a good proof that all accounts are alts and abused SCAVO signature campaign.
But there is still following more: All of them are hacked or sold accounts, they were inactive for some time all woke up in mid-july 2018 to start posting for signature campaigns. I’ve noted their posting gaps and the date when they woke up again: Account | Registration date | Posting gap last post | Posting gap next post | Archive | wedar001 | January 16, 2014, 08:28:23 AM | September 20, 2016, 01:35:03 PM | July 14, 2018, 03:25:44 AM | http://archive.is/QUEqw#selection-343.5-343.31 | littleheart | December 05, 2013, 10:32:37 AM | September 28, 2017, 12:26:15 PM | July 14, 2018, 03:45:52 AM | http://archive.is/h3CbE#selection-1603.5-1603.31 | harm | June 01, 2011, 08:33:07 AM | April 23, 2013, 10:05:23 PM | April 10, 2018, 08:06:12 PM | http://archive.is/YdC3e#selection-1047.1-1047.32 started normal posting also on July 14,2018 | 5stringer | January 12, 2013, 07:24:57 PM | April 07, 2014, 01:30:31 PM | July 14, 2018, 04:11:51 AM | http://archive.is/nyeoe#selection-1463.1-1463.32 | dudeguy | May 10, 2013, 02:43:42 | AM August 21, 2013, 01:50:22 AM | July 14, 2018, 04:15:10 AM | http://archive.is/HN0to#selection-1051.5-1051.31 | CycleSurfer | December 09, 2013, 03:05:07 PM | December 16, 2014, 04:05:08 AM | July 14, 2018, 04:22:55 AM | http://archive.is/l2A2s#selection-1183.5-1183.31 | philX | October 27, 2013, 09:46:37 AM | June 16, 2015, 10:52:33 AM | July 14, 2018, 04:34:23 AM | http://archive.is/Rkrng#selection-347.5-347.31 | madoka | January 09, 2014, 03:43:01 PM | November 22, 2016, 12:40:04 PM | July 16, 2018, 04:46:35 AM | http://archive.is/AMkZN#selection-1047.5-1047.31 | AaronVanW | January 06, 2014, 01:21:20 PM | October 08, 2015, 12:58:33 PM | July 14, 2018, 04:48:39 AM | http://archive.is/pKgJ9#selection-347.5-347.31 | pryzh | January 15, 2014, 11:10:53 AM | May 20, 2015, 10:18:53 AM | July 14, 2018, 05:30:42 AM | http://archive.is/x5yPH#selection-903.5-903.32 | Vasya | April 29, 2013, 02:28:42 PM | May 21, 2015, 04:30:47 PM | July 16, 2018, 04:57:07 AM | http://archive.is/ff7G1#selection-1599.5-1599.31 | funkenschuster | February 09, 2013, 01:23:46 PM | November 12, 2015, 12:55:28 PM | July 14, 2018, 05:50:59 AM | http://archive.is/HIH36#selection-1463.5-1463.31 | SFminer | November 22, 2013, 07:43:23 PM | July 29, 2016, 01:37:12 PM | July 17, 2018, 07:18:37 AM | http://archive.is/KxX1P#selection-969.5-969.31 |
I don’t know why they stopped posting for Scavo. But it’s so obvious that all accounts are alts and they were abusing Scavo signature campaign. They have only Member rank but I hope a DT member can tag them to avoid cheating in the next campaign.

Update: I've tagged all accounts, but it's pretty useless, because my rating is not trusted by DT, so it is hidden in untrusted feedback. It would be great if a DT member can tag them. If you want you can use my text, it's not much work: Cheating Scavo signature campaign with alts.

Do you have the smoking gun for this cheaters? Perhaps DT wanted to see more proof, like connected ETH address before they make their moved. Just saying.

I wouldn't be surprised if these accounts are actually connected. Nothing new to see in a bounty campaign. First things first, have you informed their campaign manager yet? If yes, did he kick them out? If no, please inform them about this thread and update us what he has to say. Do you have the smoking gun for this cheaters?

DT wouldn't really care much because finding alts in the bounty campaigns are obvious cases.

ETH address was hidden in the spreadsheet, but especially the posting gap which ended in mid-july is very obvious. In addition most likely hacked or sold accounts. The recent account activity since my last update is also suspicious, so I'll archive this one more time to have a proof: Account | Archive | Last active | wedar01 | http://archive.is/6YMOs | October 05, 2018, 02:40:38 AM | littleherat | http://archive.is/vzsc7 | October 05, 2018, 02:53:36 AM | harm | http://archive.is/JqMqu | October 05, 2018, 03:05:42 AM | 5stringer | http://archive.is/4AJII | October 05, 2018, 03:18:42 AM | dudeguy | http://archive.is/FZ4j3 | October 05, 2018, 03:30:31 AM | CycleSurfer | http://archive.is/SOJwJ | October 08, 2018, 06:06:27 AM | philX | http://archive.is/vgI8L | October 05, 2018, 03:43:07 AM | madoka | http://archive.is/3Zhz0 | woke up today, most likely account sold again | AaronVanW | http://archive.is/FoCbl | October 05, 2018, 10:29:39 AM | pryzh | http://archive.is/Sdhn1 | October 05, 2018, 10:31:04 AM | Vasya | http://archive.is/b1QBc | October 05, 2018, 10:45:42 AM | funkenschuster | http://archive.is/FPO3k | October 05, 2018, 10:46:56 AM | SFminer | http://archive.is/AjMVv | October 08, 2018, 06:08:38 AM |

Yes, done, I've reported them two times. The first time after I published my post and second time 2 days ago when I noticed, they gave them stakes. But the bounty managers didn't reply yet, I'll remind them a third time. Would be a shame if the cheaters get stakes. Tokens are not distributed yet, only calculated.

Update: Scavo Bounty manager reviewed my report and all cheaters got no stakes. So many thanks to Scavo to be fair and only reward legit participants. :)

After reading the entire story I've decided to red tag them, considering the campaign manager agreed to not distribute the stake to these users as well. I'm open to reconsider if they are able to clarify. You did good at tagging them even if not in DT list: the more of us tag scammers the more stable the entire system and who knows, with the new DT rules maybe today I'm in DT and tomorrow I will not and viceversa, you are not in DT today and will be tomorrow. Keep going.
