Dear @gtg,

I understand you are one of the founding witnesses here, and you have made many contributions to Steemit and Hive over the years.

However, with all due respect, Wendy is not the victim of identity theft on Hive, and I am not the perpetrator of identity theft.

I contacted Wendy via her Twitter DMs over two years ago and received her permission to publish her videos here on Leofinance and Hive.

The first year I started publishing her videos here, I was asked to prove the account was actually her.
I think I was asked this by @hivewatchers , but I am not certain because it was over two years ago.
I was able to provide a video from YouTube where she talked about DeFi projects and one of them was Cubfinance, created by @khaleelkazi , who is the founder of Leofinance.
In this video she she talked about Cubfinance, and she stated that she was publishing her videos here with my help.
After I published that video, the account was considered verified and I received no further challenges about the accounts authenticity until now.
In addition, at that time @khaleelkazi and @scaredycatguide saw the video and contacted me to inquire how I had recruited her to publish her videos on Hive.

I am looking for those communications now, so I can post the screenshots here with links.

In regards to the issue of you being unable to verify this with her staff, I think it’s fair to say that in the over two years I have been publishing her videos she has grown into one of the biggest female, cryptocurrency YouTubers, and she has staff helping her on YouTube, TikTok, Twitter, her personal website, her CryptoKnights website, her CryptoKnights discord, and her separate business which does cryptocurrency marketing consultations. In addition she does many live events requiring travel, literally all over the world.

Because of this, It is entirely possible that staff whom you contacted is unaware of a verbal agreement she made with me, when she was a much smaller influencer, and from which she earns a few hundred Leo, per month, whose value has ranged from 2 cents to 6 cents in the last 2 years, and which she is hodling in a wallet, which she hasn’t withdrawn from, to my knowledge in possibly two years.

Lastly, I value my reputation here on Hive, having been here since Steemit days, and I would not risk my account for such a blatant form of plagiarism such as identity fraud of a famous YouTuber.

I respectfully hope you will reconsider your position.
