To the people who sent me 0.001 SBD thank you but why? & discussion of memo scamming

in donations •  7 years ago 

I think it is a bit strange people sending each other 0.001 SBD and a message attached, like if someone wants me to do something send me something worthwhile lol. the message should be"join my curation trail (like someone asked me to do) or do X, Y or Z and remember don't spend all the 0.001 SBD in the one shop"

A lot of messages I noticed are pure scams, so beware of why someone is reaching out to you and be careful not to click links they send you in case they have made a good copy of legitamate websites and end up getting your keys or password from you logging in there. And if someone claims to be able to make you a tonne of money on upvoting, ask yourself why would they? They are most likely lying to you

Steempromos is an absolute scammer without a shadow of a doubt- the highlighted message in red has been sent to people, saying this account would 7-8.5X their investment.
If it sounds too good to be true it is. If he could make a lot of money from voting he'd do it on his own posts or of friends of his or donate the voting power to minnowbooster

Beware of this type of scam
