Hello everyone,
in the last period, I have become a target for many users who are indeed scammers.
They tag me in their posts and write comments on mine, often dropping their links.
This thing makes me really happy, because it allows me to easily discover their irregularities.
After the case of double accounts and plagiarists group that I discovered in the Best of India community and that I brought to the attention of the admins and the Steemit Team, just in these days I came across a new similar situation, this time in our community, Italy.
On the afternoon of March 3, 3.13pm Italian time, I receive this notification:
![image.png](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/girolamomarotta/qsVy7DWa-image.png)
User @blackempror comments on one of my posts, telling me he just wrote his introductory post, asking me to upvote it and resteem. Then attach a link where the introduction post is by that @mariaowens.
The situation at this point was already very clear to me, but it was even more so when the comment was deleted and republished after 5 minutes, at 3.18 pm from the @mariaowens account.

So, I proceeded to write a comment to warn this user and I muted both accounts in Italy.
Be careful!
If these users come in your communities, keep an eye on them.
Look at what other accounts they are exchanging upvotes with and check if the posts they write are original.
I have now discovered the connection between these two, but it's not said that this same user could have created many other accounts and some of us are inadvertently supporting them.

I hope this post has been useful and I wish it will help to isolate these users as much as possible and reduce this type of abuse on our platform.

Ciao a tutti,
ultimamente sono diventato un bersaglio per molti utenti che sono in realtà dei truffatori.
Mi taggano nei loro post e scrivono commenti ai miei, spesso lasciando i loro link.
Questa cosa mi fa davvero piacere, perché mi permette di scoprire facilmente le loro irregolarità.
Dopo il caso di doppi account e plagi che ho scoperto nella community Best of India e che ho portato all'attenzione degli admin e del Team Steemit, proprio in questi giorni mi sono imbattuto in una nuova situazione analoga, questa volta avvenuta nella nostra community, Italy.
Il pomeriggio del 3 marzo, ore 15.13 italiane, ricevo questa notifica:
![image.png](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/girolamomarotta/qsVy7DWa-image.png)
L'utente @blackempror commenta uno dei miei post, dicendomi di aver appena scritto il suo post introduttivo, chiedendomi di votarlo e di fare resteem. Allega poi un link in cui il post di introduzione è di tale @mariaowens.
La situazione a questo punto mi era già molto chiara, ma lo è stata ancora di più quando il commento è stato eliminato e ripubblicato dopo 5 minuti, alle 15.18 dall'account di @mariaowens.
![image.png](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/girolamomarotta/0cR9adlg-image.png)
Così, ho provveduto a scrivere un commento per avvertire questo utente e ho mutato entrambi gli account in Italy.
Fate attenzione!
Se questi utenti si presentano nelle vostre communities, teneteli d'occhio.
Osservate quali sono gli altri account con cui si scambiano voti e controllate se i post che scrivono sono originali.
Io ho scoperto adesso la connessione tra questi due, ma non è detto che questo stesso utente non abbia creato tanti altri account e qualcuno di noi inavvertitamente li sta supportando.

Spero che questo post sia stato utile e mi auguro che aiuti a isolare il più possibile questi utenti e a ridurre questo genere di abusi sulla nostra piattaforma.

Dude this is all a misunderstanding i explained to you what really happened ,is it a crime to bring in new users to steemit?, Is it a crime to help out a new user in starting out on steemit? ,I told you @mariaowens is a different entity ,but you don't want to listen , i guess you wanted to make some steem with your false claims , you really disappointed me.....
