Liable for what i say, not for what you understand
After reading the entire story I've decided to red tag them, considering the campaign manager agreed to not distribute the stake to these users as well. I'm open to reconsider if they are able to clarify. You did good at tagging them even if not in DT list: the more of us tag scammers the more stable the entire system and who knows, with the new DT rules maybe today I'm in DT and tomorrow I will not and viceversa, you are not in DT today and will be tomorrow.
Keep going.

Update:

I've tagged all accounts, but it's pretty useless, because my rating is not trusted by DT, so it is hidden in untrusted feedback. It would be great if a DT member can tag them. If you want you can use my text, it's not much work:

All accounts are reported to the bounty manager and deleting stakes if considered that my report is sufficient. I'm sure they are alts and cheating Scavo signature campaign, it's obvious.

Have a read of this: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.49186236 and follow the links in that post.

Update: Scavo Bounty manager reviewed my report and all cheaters got no stakes. So many thanks to Scavo to be fair and only reward legit participants.  Smiley

Do you have the smoking gun for this cheaters? Perhaps DT wanted to see more proof, like connected ETH address before they make their moved. Just saying.
ETH address was hidden in the spreadsheet, but especially the posting gap which ended in mid-july is very obvious. In addition most likely hacked or sold accounts.

The recent account activity since my last update is also suspicious, so I'll archive this one more time to have a proof:

I wouldn't be surprised if these accounts are actually connected. Nothing new to see in a bounty campaign. First things first, have you informed their campaign manager yet? If yes, did he kick them out? If no, please inform them about this thread and update us what he has to say.
Yes, done, I've reported them two times. The first time after I published my post and second time 2 days ago when I noticed, they gave them stakes. But the bounty managers didn't reply yet, I'll remind them a third time.
Would be a shame if the cheaters get stakes. Tokens are not distributed yet, only calculated.

DT wouldn't really care much because finding alts in the bounty campaigns are obvious cases.

Finally, all accounts stopped posting for this campaign, so even these dates would be a good proof that all accounts are alts and abused SCAVO signature campaign.



But there is still following more: All of them are hacked or sold accounts, they were inactive for some time all woke up in mid-july 2018 to start posting for signature campaigns. I’ve noted their posting gaps and the date when they woke up again:

I don’t know why they stopped posting for Scavo. But it’s so obvious that all accounts are alts and they were abusing Scavo signature campaign. They have only Member rank but I hope a DT member can tag them to avoid cheating in the next campaign.
