Sorry that should have said something a bit different.
The scam meaning they had connections to extract maximum value. In otherwords they weren't really who they presented themselves to be.
Can you think of a better way of phrasing this?

I shared every idea of yours yesterday. So this is conflicting. I would avoid the word if I were you, as you are not directly meaning it. Imho.

Who did they 'present themselves to be'? Did anyone think that @msgivings was someone's real name? Did @msgivings claim that? No, and no. It was presented as someone writing under a pen name, which is exactly what it was.

We aren't agreeing to disagree. We are in agreement.
What I'm doing is trying to explain both sides to the other side.
It's sad to see any creator leave though.

Calm down. The sham here is the same as any catfish that's all. People formed an emotional connection only to find out that this connection was never real.

We will perhaps have to agree to disagree, possibly based on some emotional harm you perceive yourself to have suffered. In the future, I might suggest maintaining a bit more emotional distance from someone you know only as a pseudononymous writer on a web site, and even then only for a short time.
@msgivings never claimed to be anything other than a writer. To this day, @msgivings, wherever, he, she, or possibly they, may be, is still a writer. Nothing has changed except that someone providing content that many valued (though it seems laced with some plagiarism, unfortunately) has been driven away.
As I said elsewhere, I consider that to be the real abuse, or possibly the worse abuse. Plagiarism is fixable with an edit and an apology. Hostility, negativity, and driving people away damages the platform and community at a much deeper level.
