Fake steem accounts making its way to STEEM and ripping off other peoples content

Wow .. what a start of the week ! Crypto did a significant dip from the 9k range to the 7.6k range. Great if you have saved up your USD to buy ... not so great if you are trading the opposite direction. Over the past 24 hours there seemed to have been a 250 million in long liquidity just on Bitmex alone. Thats just crazy big !

Anyway , today I want to echo what @louis88 has highlighted about people creating fake steem accounts and publishing YouTubers content to steem. Already a few has been identified. Here was the post

If you do these kind of contents ... please make sure you downvote them and don't let these spammers make money from other people's content.

Cheers and have a great week ahead

Cool

My wife is waiting for an account almost 20 days! It's ridiculous. We don't really know what to do with it...

justin sun has halted sign ups on steemit. You should ask around for a free account. I can create a one for you if you'd like.

Stupid Justin... Really. How can Steemit grow now? I'm new on the platform but I really think that Steem has future... or had.

Thank you for the proposition, but account creation isn't really expensive, so I created it myself today.
