Bounty hunter using my Bitcointalk username and profile link

[jhenfelipe]

I was a participant in Buzzshow bounty and I found out that my username and profile link were used by an unknown user to join the telegram bounty.

I've checked some bounty spreadsheets and I found another campaign(s) that I didn't even participated.

In this bounty he still uses my username and profile link, different telegram username, but the same ETH address.

The user is mostly joining the campaigns managed by needmoney. Though my username and profile link weren't used in the following campaigns listed below, and different Telegram usernames too, same Eth address was still used.

I'll just message needmoney to check since he is managing the campaigns. Given the fact that he uses different telegram usernames, same address, (plus used my Bitcointalk username and profile link) - it is considered as cheating, right?

It is, it can be considered as stealing other identities.
Although I wonder why he has the nerve to use other user's name when it can easily be spotted by the campaign manager.
Campaign manager must have monitor the spreadsheet after all
Given how identical the ETH address, that dude are seriously trying to use your username for profit from nothing.

It's a bit strange, since he/she didn't use your telegram username. For me, this is a "failed attempt at cheating".
Did a little bit of digging, found this post:

Then I looked for other telegram usernames (based on your list) and found this (last one from the list):

I've messaged needmoney after posting this thread and there's no reply as of the moment. Let's look forward if he will take an action.

Given the fact that he uses different telegram usernames, same address, (plus used my Bitcointalk username and profile link) - it is considered as cheating, right?

Failed if we could stop him from receiving payments, but it can be considered a success otherwise. Thanks for digging, with the information you've given I got to dig more as well. It seems that he also uses other member's telegram usernames. Not so surprising, thinking that why would a single person bother make several telegram accounts for every bounty.

From this telegram username @saa_aash, what you got was from the Photochain Airdrop. That Bitcointalk user (Sashafatychova) most likely is the true owner of the telegram username (@saa_aash) and that is his Eth wallet address (0x3f76aE158fC9b35b0F7e6f6d1c968BE635a0b0c4).

In my main post, I saw this telegram account on Kripton Signature Bounty Program : Spreadsheet - Row #14347, by searching the cheater's address. As I've checked the Eth address given in the authentication post above, I found out that this Bitcointalk user Sashafatychova also joined the Kripton Bounty using his telegram username and Eth address:

Row #2112 and #2214
Telegram Username: @saa_aash
Ethereum Address: 0x3f76aE158fC9b35b0F7e6f6d1c968BE635a0b0c4

Maybe the cheater did it on purpose (use of different telegram usernames) to be harder to dig. I just hope needmoney will consider not paying him (0x172C527c17Ad0A71204A8754896c926F5b00e74b)

Forgot to update here.
So, needmoney did not reply both in my message and here plus the cheater got paid in some of the campaigns already. I'm quite disappointed.

I've made more reasearch about this and open a new thread > [Bounty Cheater] Please check and let me know what you think. Please see, there are addresses posted and a bitcointalk account connected. Let's continue the discussion there, I'll be locking this thread for good.

Thank you!
