Now here is where things get a little more suacy, as you can see, we see the spammer in his or her natural habitat, linking his or her post to get "free" bitcoins. It seems like a scam, stay away from it, and yes, I flagged this person, as you should do the same.

Sort:  

I have met few people asking for upvotes and follow. Are those spammers?

Just look at their comments section in their blog. If they are repeating the same thing over and over then yes, they are spammers.

Thanks for your reply :)

The platform is new to me, I see it providing alot of potential to grow my online presence. And upvotes and followers is what I would like.

But at the same time I enjoy what I write about would most likely write what I write either way. But getting people who acknolagy they see what I write about is a plus for me.

I only hope I wont end up on this list.

Don't spam, earn your upvotes and follows naturally. And I use linux too btw

Good job.
Are you a bot ? How did you find these spammers ?

not a bot boi. found them looking at posts

Ohh. That must have been a lot of hardwork!!!

Not really, there is so much spam on steemit that you can find it just about anywhere

Good job to everybody who is fighting against this to keep steemit a wonderful platform- resteeming

Haha, thank you @alex-icey! It's a pleasure!

cornoholio, beeker and the other similar type post spammers are the most annoying.
