IMPOSTER .. Steemit, we have an imposter .. Stop this imposter

in #spam7 years ago

Hello Steemit Friends!!

I have only been on Steemit now for a little over 2 weeks and I have to say that I have already experienced my first disturbing incident.
My Project 7-001.jpg

LETS START OFF WITH SOME DEFINITIONS:

Imposter - A person who practices deception under an assumed character identity, or name

Cheater - A person who acts dishonestly in order to gain an advantage

Liar - A person who tells lies - has a reputation as a liar

Dishonest - Behaving or prone to behaving in an untrustworthy or fraudulent way

Beginning last weekend I was reading thru the Steemit Posts and came across a piece of pencil drawing. I was in awe over the piece as it is so real to life. As I am taking in the beauty of this work, I decided to upvote, resteem and comment. It was amazing to me that this beautiful art had not gotten the attention it deserved.

Aware of Jerry Banfields upvote posts which bring forward posts that should have earned more upvotes but were missed in the fast moving Steemit shuffle, I decided I would recommend this beautiful pencil work be considered for upvote.

I began following: @iconzbranding - Now going by Joke Lovers

He was posting new work regularly of which I was happy to comment in each of the posts. I was excited thinking I found the diamond in the rough.

I began going back to my post comments regularly to see what other people were saying about this beautiful work.

*PLEASE READ THE COMMENTS IN THIS POST :)

WHAT?? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? THIS @ICONZBRANDING IS AN IMPOSTER!!! This could not be true, who would do such a thing - who would steal from someone - who would pretend to be someone they are not - accepting money for work thats not yours?? NO WAY!!!

I immediately jumped back on to Jerry's blog and retracted my recommendation for upvote of this work.

Hi Guys - I absolutely love this guys work but I am seeing some comments in a couple of his posts that are questioning the authenticity of the art? I want to retract my support at this time..hate doing this but possibly the best thing..If anyone has further insite on this, please post comments in any of his posts @iconzbranding ..SUNSHINE247"

Thank goodness for the following Steemit Friends who stopped this crap from going any further:
@sherlockholmes
@kaykunoichi
@barrysamways

From my understanding, one of these fine people was even awesome enough to reach out to the actual artist who apparently is unaware of what Steemit even is.

I LOVE YOU GUYS FOR BRINGING THIS DOUCH BAG DOWN!!

I have made a point to comment in everyone of this assholes posts and will continue to do so on a regular basis as I see new posts. If you feel compelled to help by doing the same, please do.

I want all my Steemit Friends to know that I love each and everyone of you - they call me Sunshine for a reason.

Mr. @iconzbranding, you have mistaken my kindness for weakness and that is not something I will take lightly :) GO AWAY!! Steemit is not the place for you.. And by the way, your posts from 10 days ago about drugs, rape, sex slaves, etc are beyond disgusting and repulsive!!!! I was so disgusted by the Subject of these posts that I did not dare open even one of them.

Steemit Friends, please try and keep this post resteemed so we can ensure that as many people know about this Douch Bag as possible.
