BITSHARES PROPOSAL SCAM going around again it seems.... BE CAREFUL!
https://wallet.bitshares.org/#/account/committee-trade
https://wallet.bitshares.org/#/account/lusi1
It seems these two accounts, in addition to many others, are the larger-holding accounts that have been scamming people with proposal attempts for a long time now. I looked up what the new proposal was in my wallet on bitshares, because I knew nothing of proposals, and it appears that someone started about a year ago, scamming people with proposals for transfers/withdrawals. I sourced some of the accounts that have tried to do this to me, back to these main two so far. I am looking further into it, but I am warning everyone to BE CAREFUL AND DO NOT ACCEPT PROPOSALS! If you are expecting them... then PLEASE, check what the proposal is for and make sure you know who it's from.
Here is a post I found speaking about it and it seems the same people are trying to do it again. If there is a way to track this and follow the money, accurately, then someone PLEASE work to shut this piece of shit down!
The usernames used for the bitshares accounts, are very similar.... I even came across some of the same ones when looking back in time.
Please, be careful! Don't want to see anyone getting scammed!
Looking further, it seems the next account that is above these is this one:
https://wallet.bitshares.org/#/account/abit
It has over a million bts...
I really hope this isn't from scamming... but it seems to be one of the near-origin accounts that is sending bts to these scam accounts, to be able to propose how they are.
Also... it looks like they're firing up some new "legit-looking" account names, to use for this scam ring. I think it goes deeper than I can really figure out, honestly. These were just done on 4-19-20, so they are fresh.
They also seem to be dropping large amounts of bts per mass proposal, into accounts like these:
https://wallet.bitshares.org/#/account/edge-killer
https://wallet.bitshares.org/#/account/dex-killer
For what purpose? I'm not sure, but with names like "killer" it seems like this stolen bts is being used to try and crash things thru bitshares. Could this be a large part of why the values are so low? Are people being scammed out of bts, then that bts being used to suppress the markets?
Damn, idk, but this is shady shit!
Hope I'm bringing this to light to people that can try and do something more about it!
