No, it means that the forum cannot effectively protect you from scams so you should learn to protect yourself proactively and not believe that there is a security cover which protects you from scammers, just like with Bitcoin.

I don't agree entirely with the idea and feel that a little more strictness on proven scammers and scam posts will help, but it's my personal opinion.
I agree with you on this point, it is true that protection from scammers lies primarily with members themselves by doing their own research and following safety rules, but there should be more strict measures against scammers in the forum.

Strict measures may help reduce these incidents somewhat, although fraud cannot be completely prevented because fraudsters will return with new accounts, new names, and new methods, so it is very difficult to control these matters.

The OP wants others to do the hard yards and find the connections based on their hunches - all the while they distrust those of us who do the hard yards and expose and tag those who really are scamming.

What are you talking about? You don't have to "find" any connections, if you click on the hyperlinks in the OP you'll see that I've included everything you need.

In any case, the only thing I asked was that a DT member tag it -which is done now-, apart from that this post is more for future reference in case of problems with these accounts.

Are you sure you're not just trying to knock off competitors in the signature campaigns? We've seen that tactic occur time and again in various signature campaigns. 🤔

LOL !

Paranoid hysteria

And I quite:

How sad it is that *cough* "newbies" don't send PM's before they become keyboard warriors

Whatever it is that is burning you up about me (those voices in your head) you need to let it go.




If you ever had a genuine "concern" about me - you've had years to make contact yet didn't - but choose instead to a part of an echo chamber.

I call you out.

Let it go.

I don't know how you keep managing to make things about you that clearly aren't. But if I had to guess, they probably excluded you because a lot of your trust ratings are wack. Your ability to use the trust system correctly and to find alt accounts have nothing to do with each other.

Are you sure you're not just trying to knock off competitors in the signature campaigns? We've seen that tactic occur time and again in various signature campaigns. 🤔

Seeing as how none of the accounts mentioned in this thread belong to signature campaigns, I find this possibility to be very unlikely.

If the Forum doesn't ban scammers and ponzi promoters, is it that the Forum is promoting the ponzi promoters and scammers? Just asking though.
But on the other hand, I must say those guys (scammers & ponzi promoters) are like virus, they can be at a place... Is really hard to fight them off this area since they know they can catch some novice or victims.

The thing is Mods can't always know 100% if something being promoted is a scam, Take whirlwind promo as an example here on the forum, If the mods knew there was going to be an exit scam by them then their account(s) would've been nuked, banned long before it happened but sadly it didn't happen. (Considering scams are moderated)

Secondly with Ponzi schemes most of them these days are being put in a grey zone taking the example of some sort of Online mining.
Again the Mods can't be certain or verify if it's a scam till it's too late and damage has been done.

That's the reason in my opinion why scams aren't moderated on the forum.

The heaviest penalty that a mod might give is nuke.
What's the difference between nuke and ban?
As far as I know, nuke meaning banning newbie accounts and deleting all their posts, right?
Anyway, as the members above said, this is not going to happen unfortunately. Scams are not moderated in this forum and scammers don't get banned. It's what the trust system is for.

If you search in ----> https://bitcointalk.org/modlog.php you will notice that there is a difference between nuke and ban they both ban the user but nuke is for newbies where some members ask Patrollers + mods can nuke this the accounts.

You can find newbies' posts here ---> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=recent;patrol

My understanding up to this point was that nuke won't be accompanied by a ban (only posts cleanup) because in the unofficial of forum rules thread both are mentioned separately and it can also be done by local staff which I know they can't ban users. It seems you're right after I checked the nuked accounts in this post. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.51468544

This tempted me to check how long you are in the forum. Well obviously you are not here for enough time and don't know much about the code of conduct of the forum. Yes, scam, and things like ponzi, mlm, bad business, nothing are moderated by the forum officials. You must read forum rules before starting an argument of why and why not. The reason is known to all of us for years. There are no need for me to explain it again.

It would be damn hard to even go deeper for more evidence as the case maybe be, I mean that's a lot of evidence the guy has gotten so far, or are you saying that his evidence is not evidence enough to get eyes to be on those accounts? That's a lot of work you know 😅.
And plagiarism is something most members find hard to avoid .
It was answered to talk about banning or not banning the account. Since you have no idea about above, obviously your answer did not comply too.

Your suggestion is like go and check deep into their history, by any means find something which can be accused as plagiarism then you will be easily get the accounts banned LOL.
I think that's a wrong reason to be in the forum.

I think that mods should consider to ban buyingtechnow
You should know that the forum don't moderate scams or anything like that - if the forum did, I'm sure 1xbit wouldn't have a chance to promote its typical campaigns on the forum. In the meantime, the best thing to do is to tag all alt accounts - you can even tag them even if you haven't used DT. If you have feedback that proves accurate - someone will probably add you to their trust list. So don't just hope DT does it – do something if you believe there is strong evidence in your favor.

you should find a plagiarized post of one of these accounts from somewhere else without a source.

If you dig deeper, you will find more accounts. These scammers do not simply leave the forum and may continue as long as they make a dollar a week, but despite all that, there is not enough to ban these accounts. If you find an account that is plagiarizing, then it may be banned, and accordingly all alternative accounts will be banned.
Otherwise, all we can do is make a negative trust (which I will add to them if you found high-rank accounts)

The evidence you presented isn't enough to lead to these accounts getting banned, you should find a plagiarized post of one of these accounts from somewhere else without a source. They clearly belong to one person so copy pasting posts between those accounts doesn't constitute plagiarism. The heaviest penalty that a mod might give is nuke.
