Dear Steemit friends, please look out for a new probable SCAM. Yesterday I received a private message on Steemit chat from user 'cryptomonster'. It is a SCAM in my opinion and I thought I will warn all of you. You can read the message content below:

Słuchajcie ludziska, uważajcie na nowy potencjalny SCAM na platformie. Wczoraj otrzymałem na czacie steemowym prywatną wiadomość od użytkownika 'cryptomonster'. Pomyślałem, że ostrzegę Was wszystkich. Treść oryginalnej wiadomości znajdziecie poniżej:

Tired of low post earnings? You dont have followers? You want to save your time? Dont give up! I offer a startup package for people with less than 500 followers. I will boost your steemit account to 1000 followers in one week. The price is $150. You pay $75 at the start and another $75 when you get your account with 1k followers back. Thanks for reading, payments are made via paypal so you can charge your money back if you dont get what you paid for. Hit me up if you're interested!

When I told him that this is SCAM, he answered:

Kiedy odpowiedziałem, że to SCAM, odpisał mi tak:

I will make original content on your account, my content ends on trending page in 99% of cases

New Steemit users can be easly cheated by this guy, so please share this information with your followers - let's stop the fraud from steal people's money.

Nowi użytkownicy Steemit mogą się łatwo nabrać, dlatego rozpowszechniajcie tą informację - nie pozwólmy żeby koleś kradł innym pieniądze.

I don't think anyone on steemit can be easily cheated as you said.
I mean, who would give $75 to a stranger with a promise?

Also, we all know PayPal won't reimburse you for this kind of digital services, not that I know of, will have to take a look at TOS.

Do you still have the chat screen-grabs ?

Thank you!

To co opisałem cały czas ma się dobrze. Nikt się tym za bardzo nie przejmuje, a nieświadomi użytkownicy się na to łapią...

Pyramidal scheme or just a simple scam?
I would not give money to a random guy without a guarantee, I'm sure of that.

Yes, me neither. But some of the new users can think that the huge number of followers means the huge amount of earnings (which we know is not truth) and may pay the guy. I think it doesn't matter if it's a pyramidal scheme or scam, in both ways it's kind of cheating and in a way stealing money. And I hate that, that's why I'm trying to inform everyone about such practice.

Dzięki za ostrzeżenie. Dodam że dużo jest naciągaczy tutaj i trzeba się pilnować. Nawet takie randowhale jest wykorzystywane i ktoś założył sobie profil randoMwhale, wiadomo w jakim celu.
