    Safe/Secure Alerts to Avoid Scammers/Imposters

    Hello, I was in The Trading Bungalow, @Jeremih Posted and said that people should be warned about the discord issue that has been going on.
    As you probably know the issue is on discord where you can have the same name as a big tier trader.
    Take the sythe owner for example
    To find out if it's the real owner you've got to get their discord ID
    To a newcomer or guest to sythe this may not be very clear
    I know that the admins / mods have posted some stuff in trade forums but for the people in discord there should be warnings and I think agreeing to a Tos would help
    I'm giving all credit to @Jeremih I was told I can post this.
    If anyone can do this it will help A LOT.
    To help newcommers not being scammed by impersonators on discord you can put more disclaimers and make sure they ask for a sythe Pm
    Making an alert would be really beneficial to a newcomer / Guest
    Lots of those impersonators are out there

    I had more but me and the person that gave me permission to post this told me they deleted them, so did I
    I know there's as Luck, Panda and Champ impersonator out there right now
    Be careful, I would post the ID but dont have it as i said
    Always find the discord ID by turning developer mode on!

    I fully support this, just threads in sections do not play a huge role in keeping a buyer/seller safe. Many new people come to Sythe every day ignoring most of the safe/secure threads and focus on what they want to buy/sell. A majority of guests just add the trader's Discord and do not request a PM at all. A one time alert for guests/new users would be beneficial and stop a lot of these scammers/imposters. Since this new Discord Update, scamming has gotten way worse, and we need to fix this ASAP.

    Many of the users are guests and new users for that matter. They are the key to selling/buying. I think this problem will benefit both parties and could remove a large majority of scams.
