All of the people responding with "this is great!" appear to be sock puppet accounts to encourage others to send their crypto with confidence. I can not find any real content on any of those accounts commenting about how wonderful this is. I checked 5 of the responses to the shady offer. I am bored with this. Just wanted to share.

note: deepcrypto8 is Binance, please see below:

There is an update to this story. It is confirmed this account does belong to Steem(it). Please see link below.

@coininstant Right! I tried to connect to binance but there is only a service for personal issues.

Best way would be to get an answer from steemit.inc. Lets try steemit´s support maybe we get some help @andrarchy

thank you, its the official steem account and the official binance/deepcrypto8 account...maybe one should report to binance? Because how should it work? If you take the money and send it to the bianance account with the special memo, it is still on the binance account

...I cant remember but I think some month ago, there was a bug in the memo system, where the money ended up in an other account. At least they know something about the steem-transfersystem we dont know. Exciting ^^ (also sad ... but who is that dumb)

Wow man yeah some crazy times we are in within the crypto sphere. I know one thing, whoever wrote that actually sat down and took the time to write it. And we know that was not a bug but a hand written message for the general public. And to me that is very telling.

Thank you man for your feedback,

Hope they sort it out..

Cheers

Yeah where is the proof, screenshots from the people, links to their steem accounts. Who are they? Seems so fake. Binance should confirm. Steemit can't afford to just give away big money like that. It's like after we work so hard here to make nothing, they give it away in truckloads to FB clowns, I don't believe any of it for one second! You think steemit coulda' thrown me one vote on a post to un grey me one day at least if they were into being soooo generous? YES Very SAD! Poor people that get scammed probably get blocked from FB for saying anything about it I bet? Crazy days! Thanks!

PS I just tried looking up the first person, she doesn't even have a steemit account!

Just when Steem was done, we end up with such jokers to spoil the name of the platform even further. Good find. Hey @themarkymark, @arcange, anything can be done about this spam and scam on the Facebook page?

Thanks for your comment. The strange thing is it was written by the official Steem FB account. It looks really bad on the platform for sure.

Take care.

(perhaps they were hacked?) But then again why would they want money sent to deepcrypto8 which is sort of a highly respected account concerning Steem transfers. That makes me think that this is not indeed a hack. It appears to come from 'inside' Steem.

This was not posted by the official Steem account. An imposter account is commenting on official posts so that it appears like an official account. These comments have been deleted and the posting account reported to Facebook. If you do come across more comments or posts like this, please let me know by contacting me on discord at @andrarchy or emailing me at [email protected]

While I do not agree, as others and myself saw what we saw. I will tell you that I actually am very pleased that you took the time to explain, as well as respond.

So much respect to you for that.

Should any concerns arise I will reach out via email in the future. Thank you for sharing it.

Take care man

Yeah, for sure. At least you brought that to notice.

Wow, even better detective skills done by @kawaiicrush - good work! Of course it is the insiders, they have been playing us as fools the whole entire time. Then olivas accidentally tags the criminals to come and find your post here! OMG! Keep up the good sleuthing on the FB end!

Thanks Bro. I mean I am sure there are a few good guys in the mix over at Stinc. But I think there is a real problem with at least some and or someone. Of course we can't really tell who wrote it, all we can tell is it is coming from the actual Official Steem account. And on top of that I was trying to give the benefit of the doubt to them, like perhaps someone was hacking their account to try and turn a quick profit.. but if that was the case wouldn't they ask for people to send money to their personal bitcoin address or Steem wallet? Why would they want the money to go to the infamous 'Deepcrypto8' which is widely known as a Steem exchange, and a highly respected one at that by a vast amount of people who use it.

So that being said.. it leaves my benefit of the doubt in the dust. Clearly this is coming from the inside.

At any rate as I said I do hope that there are some good guys inside. I really do. Perhaps they can root out the weeds so to speak.

Oh and one last thing. The 'deepcrypto8' apparently belongs to the guy running Binance? Oh man this goes from bad to worse.

Cheers man

@oivas why are you asking the criminals anything. It is probably one of them? OMG!!! Wake UP!

If I were you I would report that post on FB! I quit that site or I would! If they don't take it down, means it is BIG Z!
Re-steemed, I hope it doesn't hurt!

They made this account invisible to downvotes. It earns nothing and has nothing to loose. You are all free to share the info and do as you wish. I just don't want to see people loose out on hard earned money is all.

Thanks man

Yeah I sent @elipowell an @justinw the question, who is in charge of this scam, however none of them will ever answer me! You're Welcome!
P.S. I think @justinw is in charge of the accounts, since he is in charge of the steem youtube account! lol he is just broke ass and needs to scam some steem!

Oh wow and this is the same guy they are pushing on 'Featured posts'?! What message does this send to potential investors? Man oh man.

Yeah I had a bad feeling about him, notice I have been after him lately? I can tell if a person is bad just by looking at their face. The guy looks evil to me, I told him so the other day! His footer on the bottom of his post has that glaring down at you condescending look! He looks mean to me! Also the way he is “board” of looking into his own scam, give me a break, it is totally obvious to me. I’m turning him in tomorrow to the feds, just like the other guys!
Lol i had him on my trash list for a reason, now I know why something was telling me @justinw was up to something. Also his account had been dormant for a long time, and just now he comes out. I been flagging him so he probably got pissed and wants to take it out on unsuspecting fb people. He needs more steem fast to come and fight with me! Or exit! Looks like exit scam to me! The guy just doesn’t look smart like an engineer either. That may sound a little rude, but he was rude to me by not answering my questions before! He looks more like a thug biker gangster if you ask me. Thanks!🙏🤙🤙

Thanks Coin you are a blessing to people who may have otherwise gotten scammed out here. I know they want people to dislike you but I see the good in you. And I know that you are doing the right thing. You are a good man. And brave for standing up in the face of this crap.

Cheers

Here's another one, this lady doesn't even have a steem account in her name either! Doesn't necessarily mean anything for sure, will start to look at deepcrypto8 deposits next! Check steemd for deepcrypto8 and see if you find any txs!

Try an find a 60000 STEEM transaction! Lotta big transactions!
Screen Shot 2019-07-21 at 10.32.24 PM.png

I just looked & didn't see one 60,000 STEEM tx from the last 24 hours! So it is all lies / scams! Or the 20,000 , none of the exact round numbers from the post were found! lol! People would not mess up

Yeah that is why I know those are sock puppets. They were asked to send with a specific memo code/number. I searched back for the last 3 days and could not find one exchange done with that memo. Therefore the people saying how "great it is" are not infact real people. It is staged to try and get normal folks to send their money.

And again I am not saying all Steem Inc people are a part of this negative behavior. But for sure someone is a bad egg. Wonder who?

Why do these people need steem, they are not real, no steemit accounts! :D! WOW!

Yes those responding are all false accounts, or 'sock puppets'. Which means the person writing the message is staging a narrative that things are legitimate to encourage good people to send over their hard earned dollars.

I know you enjoy downvoting man and if you don't need the cash stay locked in man. But if the money is something you need I would bow out bro. Things are not looking up and you wouldn't want to loose out on 15k USD.

Not financial advice, just a man to man.

I cannot believe they are pulling the ETH scam from Steemit now, this means last ditch efforts before they run and hide! OMG so crazy! PONZY scheme final end stages about to go down! They are about to pull the vanishing act. Those poor people sending them STEEM to flag us with! This is beyond me, Zuckerberg is probably on the one on the insie of STEEM! He needs to try & get rid of it before he can Launch Libra? Member Z stole FB from the twins, and sold the peeps info, he is as shady as anyone here too! That has been my theory from the beginning!
