Fake Account

https://read.cash/@bmjc98/someone-stole-my-axiebch-related-articles-and-made-money-on-hive-9a2635fa#comment-8bbb3e09 a month ago. I didn't notice this before since I was too inactive in my social activities these past months. So there I just found out that someone did use my original nickname which is "nheng1118" to plagiarize my Article about Axie Infinity a year ago (last October 2021).Hello everyone, I'm a newbie here. It's my first time signing up here in hive. Been seeing most of my friends was already here, so I decided to sign up too. But before something happened, while I was checking all my notifications on my read.cash account I noticed that my friend @bmjc98 tagged me on her article

Though it's already happened a year ago I still wanted to clear my name that it wasn't me. That this is only my first time registering an account here. I just hated the idea that someone plagiarized content to make some money out of it.

Anyway thanks to Hive admin finding out about this scammer, hopefully, he/she's already out of this platform.

And for now, I guess I have to explore first here in Hive and will continue to learn everything. I guess I will add this platform to my activity list. Write Articles, Be Active, and so on. Hopefully, I am welcome here too. 🙂

Note: I'm sorry if my article here is not yet very good coz I'm still learning how to make an article here.

Hello @nheng111887! This is @traciyork from the @ocd (Original Content Decentralized) curation team. We noticed you shared your first post here on Hive - congratulations and welcome! Not the most wonderful way to discover Hive though - sorry for your experience with the scammer. Unfortunately, like most monetized sites, we've had many instances of this happening, but fortunately the community has gotten better at spotting & stopping them.

One of the ways we try to do this is by having content creators with established social media accounts verify by adding the word, "Hive" to one of their bios, or otherwise show that they're aware of the Hive account. For instance, you could either add "Hive" to your Twitter bio (you can delete it after it's been confirmed), or your profile link, or even just tweet out this post. Once you've done it, if you could comment & tag me so I can check, I can then complete the verification process for you.

It would also be awesome if you could do more of an introduction post, so our community can get to know you better. For information on how to write an intro post, please check out the SELF INTRODUCTION section of the post 3 things Newbies should do in their first week on Hive.

Speaking of community, we have many different ones here on the blockchain, devoted to all kinds of interests. Here's a link so you can check them all out - Hive Communities . I see you've already found Hive Learners, and I think it's a safe bet that you'll enjoy the Axie Buzz as well. 😁

Also, as Hive can sometimes be quite confusing, the newly launched Newbies Guide should be helpful to you, as it is a growing repository of useful and easy to understand posts about how the Hive ecosystem works.

Please be aware that Hive is a bit different from other social media platforms since you are monetizing your blog (although as a read.cash user, I'm sure you're already aware), so it is important not to include content that you don't own without sources (and it shouldn't exceed 50% of the post). For more information, check this post - Why and How People Abuse and Plagiarise by hivewatchers.

OCD Discord server if you have any questions!For now, @lovesniper will follow your account and we are looking forward to seeing your intro post. Also, please tag @traciyork & @lovesniper in your intro post, so we can consider it for OCD curation. Lastly, feel free to hop into the

Oh 🙈 yeah yeah I'm sorry for posting in the wrong place I guess and for posting about this fake user instead of posting an introductory post 🙈 will check everything that you have shared with me and will gonna introduce myself too in a right place, lols..anyway thank you for the warm welcome..and I will probably explore more as I'm still confused how to use this platform too. 🙈 But I'm glad to be here and hopefully I can start a new journey too like some of my friends here. 😊

No worries - you didn't post in the wrong place, and I can see why you wrote about this for your first post. I just shouted out to you on Twitter (which also works for verification) so once you reply, I'll make sure people know this is the real you.

Hello Nheng. Welcome to Hive. It's awful you had to experience such from that scammer. Hope you'll have a better experience henceforth.

I was very active at noise.cash for some time before, but never on read.cash because I was already active here on Hive and I couldnt afford to create original for that site anymore.

I guess it's worth the while to check these social media sites (especially the earning ones) if someone has tried to make a fake account on our names.

All the best!

Oh hi 🙂 thank you for the warm welcome, what's your name in noise? How I wish I learned about hive earlier too 🙂

Hi, I'm erinclair in noise.cash then I recently registered to the new one with the same handle- arrliinn. I've not posted anything in the new one though. erinclair acct is pretty much dormant. 😅
