Beware

[Skito]

I have encountered a few impostors today..

Just beware as these types of things can get you IF you are not aware of them.

Thank you for the heads up But from what I have been reading around today there is nothing anyone can do about imposters.

There's nothing we can do about this. In all reality, the fault lies entirely on the users for allowing themselves to be scammed, and giving these guys an incentive to continue impostering well known/trusted users. If the impostors weren't profiting from it, there would be no reason for them to keep doing it.

I know, I am not asking for them to be punished but just wanted to let people know.

Yeah, the n4no imposter got me... 100m down the drain because of my ignorance :/

The best thing to do is tell the real person being impostered about it so they can add it to their thread.

Very true, it stops that fraud but then a new one pops up in their place - like maggots they are...

Imposters are too easy to avoid. All you have to do is to ask for a PM here on Sythe. If they make excuses telling you that they are out there somewhere then don't continue with the trade. That's how simple it is.
