Beware of these Scam Steemit Exchanger Accounts : A little Mistake might Vanish your Hard-Earned Steems/SBD's!
Safety first is Safety always - Charles Hayes
Be Wary Friends, please double check everything!
Many fund transfers here in Steemit were lost because of simple mistakes they get whenever transferring their funds to exchangers (Withdrawal). Friends, please be wary. I intentionally made this post to warn you about this, its heart-breaking to see a friend / fellow steemian fall as a victim about this. Please continue reading.
Thanks to @arcange's Steem SQL for the data.
Now guys, I was able to take some screenshots on Fake Exchanger accounts that looks almost the same as the verified currency exchangers, but only differ very very slightly!
Please note that verified Steemit accounts are @blocktrades, @bittrex, and @poloniex
No other else with almost the same as this account!
I'll show you some heart-breaking transfers
Under the account @bittrec, my buddy @misterakpan made a mistake in transferring his hard-earned Steem to this account. A heart-breaking loss to my friend. You can check on it too if you want.
Also under the account @poloniex.com, another user was scammed and it can never be returned! Imagine 1785 STEEMS, all gone because of a simple mistake.
Another one from @bittrex.com account!
This is perhaps the most heart-breaking mistake ever in transferring an account to fake Currency Exchangers, 5478 STEEMS! and it was vanished because of a simple mistake. Really heart-breaking.
I made a summary of accounts to currency exchangers that has a slight difference. Hope this helps.

Please, Quadruple check your transfers
Because once it is done, it can never be returned back again. So everyone, please be cautious and wary of your account transfers. These scam accounts are just waiting, waiting for victims.
Hope it helps. Resteem for awareness.

Great post! Really valuable information, and I couldn`t agree more, It never hurts to check 4 times before sending the funds.
Found one you don´t have on the list: Bloctrades
Better safe than sorry!
It was so good that you included the fake accounts here so that people can double check.

For big transfers, always test with a small transaction first.👌
