RE: Fake Proposal Scam! 8700+ Accounts Involved

in Ecency10 months ago

I am unfamiliar with the process for claiming free accounts and creating them through Hive on Board. When claiming an account token and creating the account a record of the transaction is preserved on the blockchain, is it not? It seems the perpetrator of this attempted scam was well staked enough to claim >8700 accounts, which should narrow down the potential suspects quite a bit.

Hi.
I had already found the scammer.
The abuser is bgmoha / albro / brook.dev (identity theft)
The vulnerability was the bug with a referral code that was allowed to be endlessly re-used for account creation.

This is excellent news!

Thanks again.
