UPDATE: He only needs 10 sbd

😂 😂 😂

Your hair looks amazing!! Ned. @gardenofeden it´s a huge consciousness that already knows the reality of the environment and is stripping Ned. XD

Hahaha 😂😂😂😂
Maybe his child now just need candy to feel better. 😂

Wow! You guys wouldn't even help @ned?

I like the part where you tell him how great his hair looks.

HAHAHHAHAHAHHAAHHHAA I got a good chuckle out of that also!
I didn't even see it until a day after this post was made and I was quite entertained.
Great to see the Legend here appreciating it as well!

I think the hair compliment is one of the best parts!! Shame on us for not helping him for that reason alone!!

Judging from the exchanges, he is definitely lying. Glad that you have alerted us on this. We really need to be more alert. How do we check unless we start asking more questions and details, right??
@jackpot

Yes he's not only a scammer, he's a bad one at that. It's up to us to hold one another accountable, and to alert each other to potential dangers/threats. And yes, being conscious and aware and responsible is necessary for upholding truth!

This is absolute GOLD

hahahahahaha So hilarious!!!!!!

Agreed!!! Such lolz

😂 excellent job keeping him going! I would have messed with him so much more 😉

I tried to send to the 30sbd to your bittrex but the site tells me this account has been suspended? I received this message: Your IP and the account holders IP have been reported to the FBI cyber security division. What does this mean? Please help! I do not understand

Lol! That would have been great ... Or greater anyway.

Yes if anyone could have made this post greater it would have been @blueorgy !

awww thank you 🤗 🙃
btw this is blueorgy (new account I'm working on today ;)

Yea I think I may have been your first follower!

HAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHHAA OH YES!

Hopefully he tries to contact you.......

LMAO!

Sadly I never got the message ☹️
btw this is blueorgy (new account I'm working on today ;)

SO SAD!

So a new account aye? Congrats. Whats your plan for it? I will give you a follow now!

That would be another really great, hilarious approach @blueorgy! Very clever you asking for his help with such an issue. Nice one!

Hahahahhhaahha This is HILARIOUS!!!!!

I just hate it when my lektop breaks....

HAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHHAAHHA

Ugh, that's like the wursd!

bahahah ;)

hahhaggahgdhasgsahdgshdagdhshhahahaha. XD XD

You guys cracking up is making me crack up all over again! hehe

It is worrying what is happening these days, false accounts, hackers. Also look at an account offering fake contests, hope the security can be strengthened, fortunately and thanks to @arcange has done a timely action.

Yes thankfully we have many vigilant and considerate members of the community with the capability to protect us from malicious intent. May our protectors be abundantly blessed!

Yeah, I got a message from him too.
I told him right aways to stop impersonating Ned,
as it was obvious that Ned would not be contacting me the way that this guy did.

I got a good giggle out of reading your exchange.

Yes it IS obvious that Ned would not be contacting people like this! S/he is not even a good scammer! Unfortunate that they did not heed your responsible advice. Karma will get them in the end.
Glad you enjoyed this @canadian-coconut - we thought it was pretty funny too!

Yes you are a "smart coconut" hehe

Looks like someone here decided to have a bit of fun with it (not tricked obviously) just choosing to play along for the fun of it hahahaha

Well worth it. Thanks GOE for providing this hilarious and PATHETIC attempt!

Good old Ned -- how dare you turn him away @canadican-coconut!!! LoL So glad you're sharing your experience here too. It's great to raise the awareness and keep an eye on each other. <3

Can't trust Ned. He's obviously a scammer.

I also had a long conversation with him. I'll have to share mine.

Please do!!!

Like the world's dumbest criminal collections that they sometimes have on radio shows, etc., someday soon I'm guessing that there will be a Steemit's dumbest scammers collection as well.

Hahahaha, that would be funny to see...and also a bit sad and pathetic.

OMG!!! I'm so glad we are blessed with this moment of laughter.

I'm feeling really bad for Ned though--it really sucks that the founder of Steemit and his 11 year old child are not better supported by this community. Maybe would could all send him our lektops so he will no longer have to beg for attention and financial support! Maybe he can get a new hairdo too!!

I'm sure the @gardenofeden will give him some FREE lesson on integrity and honor, and karma will also hand him a large opportunity to address his dysfunctional needs.

This is totally hilarious. What a great exchange @gardenofeden. Thank you for being vigilant, sharing the scam, and giving us a laugh today!!

Hahahaha i like the way you stressed to him that he is a liar!

It is so unfortunate that he was not listening,the only thing on his mind was the 30SBD........he did not even read your replies to him.

What a pathetic soul!

Indeed! The best help we can offer someone like this is the Truth.

Nice. The recent DDoS has discouraged me as well, as I recently posted about (most recent two posts).

It's up to us to look out for one another, and to uphold honor & integrity. Hopefully calling out liars will discourage harmful behavior! It's great to know we have "good guys" working hard to protect us all as well. Steemit is a very interesting social experiment, for sure.

Any opinion on this I stumbled across?

https://steemit.com/@kwabyna

Agree with your statement that it looks a little fishy. Can be reported to Steemcleaners or steemitabuse channel of steemit.chat or flagged.

That toolbag hit me up, too. Reported in Steemitabuse.

There are likely others he contacted as well...hopefully no one falls for it!

Omg i lost it when you said his hair looks great hahaha.

He has a new child that's 11 years old? 😂 😂 😂

LOL!! What a dummy! Glad you enjoyed it, @kaykunoichi <3

Hahahaha, I was not expecting this from @ned. I had a very good laugh and shared it with my friend and he's also laughing. Thank You @gardenofeden for making my day. Oh wait a minute. The credit should go to the spammer, right? ;)

Steem On!

Nah, he (or she) is an unclever idiot obviously incapable of creating quality content or he wouldn't resort to such pathetic tactics. Although without, there is no exchange to bring laughs to so many!

Great Comment!

Very good. . Thankyou for sharing @gardenofeden 👍

You're welcome, hope you're more aware because of it.

Okay I will use it more wisely.

I am very new here at steemit and so such awareness posts are of real help to me. Thanks!

Haha, oh my word. That's quite hilarious, the responses as well as the sheer ridiculousness of their ploy. Damn that would have been fine Uncle Boom fodder!

This is the silliest scam I've seen yet on Steemit. No one could possibly be so naive as to fall for this, right?

You guys I LMFAO reading how you responded. This was creamy and delicious.

firstly sorry you had to go through that. even if it was a scammer it's not nice when someone uses and abuses things like that to get money out of a person. on the flip of that coin boy did you handle it well. good for you! :)
