Hello everybody,

I just want to inform you once again that there are scammers who use other's account name in bounties.
Here is in one picture 3 different tesla80 are exist. The other 2 are scammers who copied my profile URL to the bounty sheet.
It's good that the bounty manager finds them easily, but not every manager is good like him/her.
So be careful, some people earns money over your account.

I see that you are reporting about the bounty scammers here. For that you can create a thread on scam accusation section mate. This is not the right place to report anyone about the scam or anything.
You need to find the moderators and DT members means at least take this thread to the meta section. There you can find DT members.

Actually I do not understand how the actors work and somehow they can think up to it. I hope this problem will not continue for the future. So that we all as a participant bounty campaign not harmed even just because the use of names by others. Hopefully there is an action from the moderator on this matter.

I have seen instances of such. I have read about participants complain on how some cheaters duplicate entries. This people ought to be exposed gradually.

They cannot be identified as they register with OTHER PEOPLE'S accounts and also use new just created Ethereum addresses with no transaction history, so it's impossible to ban them, as we just don't know who they are. The only thing we can do is to ask a bounty manager to delete them and not to pay them, so this is how we can make their business less profitable, so one day they may just stop.
