On Steemit, I tend to gravitate towards the people who seem to speak their mind and create original stuff, rather than just copying from Wiki or posting a meme. I think that is how I find real people on this platform.
On Facebook or Twitter, I do the same thing. Although, like @sydesjokes and @reonlouw, I do look for a picture and then review it to make sure it's not fake. I have been burned a few times by scammers stealing my friends photos. But I usually unfollow or block them pretty quickly.
