All of the people responding with "this is great!" appear to be sock puppet accounts to encourage others to send their crypto with confidence. I can not find any real content on any of those accounts commenting about how wonderful this is. I checked 5 of the responses to the shady offer. I am bored with this. Just wanted to share.

There is an update to this story. It is confirmed this account does belong to Steem(it). Please see link below.

@coininstant Right! I tried to connect to binance but there is only a service for personal issues.

Best way would be to get an answer from steemit.inc. Lets try steemit´s support maybe we get some help @andrarchy

Good idea. Yeah hope they sort it out.

Cheers man

thank you, its the official steem account and the official binance/deepcrypto8 account...maybe one should report to binance? Because how should it work? If you take the money and send it to the bianance account with the special memo, it is still on the binance account

...I cant remember but I think some month ago, there was a bug in the memo system, where the money ended up in an other account. At least they know something about the steem-transfersystem we dont know. Exciting ^^ (also sad ... but who is that dumb)

Wow man yeah some crazy times we are in within the crypto sphere. I know one thing, whoever wrote that actually sat down and took the time to write it. And we know that was not a bug but a hand written message for the general public. And to me that is very telling.

Thank you man for your feedback,

Hope they sort it out..

Cheers

Thanks for your comment. The strange thing is it was written by the official Steem FB account. It looks really bad on the platform for sure.

Take care.

(perhaps they were hacked?) But then again why would they want money sent to deepcrypto8 which is sort of a highly respected account concerning Steem transfers. That makes me think that this is not indeed a hack. It appears to come from 'inside' Steem.

This was not posted by the official Steem account. An imposter account is commenting on official posts so that it appears like an official account. These comments have been deleted and the posting account reported to Facebook. If you do come across more comments or posts like this, please let me know by contacting me on discord at @andrarchy or emailing me at [email protected]
