Shinning on them scammers and spammers

So this motherfucker @jones420 is going around and asking people for 2sbd and in return he will resteem to 6k+ people and get massive upvotes. I fell victim to this at my own stupidity and lack of research, not till @rest100 said something to me about it in steemspeak, and opened my eyes to the facts, did i start researching and trying to see what i can find out about this guy. After just glancing at his profile and seeing that he has a rep of 0, i quickly realized that i fucked up!!!! Come to find out, all or at least most of his followers and upvotes are from FAKE accounts .

So with some further investigation on this douche bag, I found in his transactions a few unhappy customers. A particular one that you all might be interested in which is by @joanaltres and he put this little SCAM ALERT.
"SCAM ALERT!!! The account @jones420 is trying to scam people with the promise of 200+ upvotes from his thousands of FAKE ACCOUNTS. Steemit's Top Witness @pfunk has already confirmed in a comment that jones420 is a scammer with fake accounts. See the link and his comment here: https://steemit.com/news/@danyelk/your-daily-crypto-news-on-steemit-august-05-2017#@carlobelgado/re-danyelk-re-face2face-re-pfunk-201785t202445556z-20170805t152906039z"

So you can catch a scammer and not be subject to this bullshit, here are some things I personally reccommend doing before using a service of this kind.
#1 Do your damn research. I did not and now im out 2sbd with hardly any profit back.
#2 Make sure the person who is doing the service is legit. Go look on their profile, go check what they hav done and see what it has done for others.
#3 Get your ass in steemspeak and talk to people who are in the "know" . The more you talk to people who know whats going on, the better informed you will be and less likely to get scammed.
Also use other servises like minnowbooster and there are others out there that do a way better job than this fool.

I hope you enjoyed this article...dont forget to resteem, upvote and comment.
Keep steemin fellow steemians
