Your Steemy opinions matter!
Hey, I'm not trying to make this post a NEGATIVE type of post but more like REALISTIC and SINCERE. Gonna make it short and sweet (trying to) to acknowledge some who don't know about it so and to ask for the opinions of people who have been done the same way.
The vague beginning..
My beloved community 'DDaily (aka 'DtubeDaily')' and exactly on Discord channel a few days back.. I saw people said something like 'Oh, I saw you sent 2 STEEM to him too' so I actually was curious and went to check the person's Steem account..
'People do send him money.. Do I miss anything here?'
NO! I did not miss anything
A few days later (Yesterday, that is) I got reached by DMing.
Let me clarify myself here first before you go and have a look at the real conversation I had with the guy last night.
- I usually answer people who dm me if 1) We have interacted through the platform at least a bit before 2) The msg doesn't sound so spammy.
- I have heard about the guy and what he's been doing before.
- I was not trying to be a b****
Thank you for your understanding :) ❤
Now it's your turn..
Now after the whole conversation, what do you think? Do you think this sounds spammy or it sounds reasonable? What would you do if you're in the same situation. Do you think I was too mean by saying all those so.
Though, I was kind enough to give him some guidelines..
Yes, making proper posts about the case or also put it on Fundition would totally help if it's really a HELP-NEEDED case.
Some friends who are in the same boat
I went straight to ask my fellow DDaily crew how many have been done the same way so far and here they came! Plus+ another friend I have asked through DM. You know, to each his own.. Some are more kind than another and some maybe more reasonable in his own way.
A friend of mine even make a video on DTube and was going to fund for the guy.. Oh my! Then, we had a talk. He actually regrets doing so..
I'm not here to talk against..
I feel bad that I rejected the guy (Think about if it's really a true story!) but at the same time I feel good for doing what it's right to do (Who does beg through direct messages??!).
I slept through it a night
Woke up this morning and it's still in my head! Oh my!!!!! Helpppppp!!! I read through all the discord chats again, check his profile and wallet.. Hmm..
I SENT HIM STEEM!
0.001 STEEM with the memo that says..
I STILL DON'T THINK 'DMing people and ASKING FOR MONEY' is the right way to do. My sincere suggestions : Fundition / Make good posts / make good videos / connecting with people with your sincerity. OH! You said you buy the art supplies, please join a lot of art contest out there on Steemit and get some Steem that you gain with PRIDE. By far, my small community 'DDaily' 5 of them got asked the same thing and I found it's crazy. 2 STEEM aint that much but if you ask for 20 people a day and half of them believe you, that's 20 STEEM! I'm not sure if the stories you tell people people (including me) are true. If so, I'm sorry about that. If not, karma is a what? and you know it. Either way, I CONSIDER THIS IS NOT THE RIGHT WAY OF GETTING STEEM. IF PEOPLE ARE READING THIS, LET ME KNOW IF YOU AGREE. This is a kind msg. Don't mean to offend but opposite, it's full of reasonable thoughts. Lots of lots of love, Mo ❤
Well, I don't know what's REALLY RIGHT OR WRONG in this situation but here to acknowledge you just like I have already said so.
Hope this helps and not too much of the negativity (Oh my! I'm so scared people would hate me for this post! Please don't as I love you all and Steem is my home! )
Lots of lots of love,
Mo ❤
I DO USE. I DO LOVE ! ❤

We would love to talk to you ! on Fundition Discord server & eSteem Discord server
I was just messaged by him and checked his wallet and saw your message and came to your account and saw this post. I also asked around as I've never had any interaction with this person before and heard he was banned from a few other discord channels for doing the same thing and not repaying people. If he looked at my wallet, he would see that I don't have SBD to give and my situation isn't great at the moment either, but I'm not going around begging others for money. I enter challenges and also try to reply to people who comment on my posts when I get a chance to post. But my message was the exact same thing as yours but I did not respond and then I got sad faces. He has made more in steem than in the past two weeks than I have made since joining in July, and then I see he got whitelisted on minnowsupport, which could be a good thing for him if he would do as you suggested to him. I also do not think that being honest is mean. I wonder if he will see your post.
Wow, thanks for such a thoughtful comment and yes, I do agree with all you said. Not so sure if the person would see this but I do hope so. If this continue to happen, I won't leave this case alone. Thank you for the comment again, this is such a support! :) ❤️
I still have not replied to his original message and I get sad faces today. I looked at his wallet and he got more donations and then checked out his blog and now he speaks French? I'm impressed. Good job Google translator. I was thinking about just signing him up for 0.500 SBI instead and just not responding to him. What are your thoughts on that?
You do you but I wouldn't support in any ways..
Yeah. It was just a thought, but the more I think about it, the more upset I get about it. I don't like the idea of this person doing this and it seems he's been doing it for months now and getting banned from different discord servers and harassing others. I'm wondering how much he has actually gotten out of people.
Mo, I think you handled the situation well. That guy could get a lot more respect and Steem by making a post about his situation with photos and video. He should share his story not ask for handouts.
Thank you chef for the support! :) ❤️
I have been told that a certain person needed food etc. but then started begging me to send him ITunes gift cards. He requested 50.00 or 100.00 denominations. lol. He also told me he can not make content because he doesn't have a proper device. Yet he has an Ipad Ipod or Iphone? He then went to other Steemians to have them help him ask me for money to which he was declined and kicked from the group for doing so. Apparently this person has done this to many people. If someone really does need food etc. Why not be honest in a post, explain the situation, and be upfront. Yes I think you did the right thing @waybeyondpadthai.
Very interesting topic and one that I am glad you brought up. :D
Thank you so much. That sounds real bad. Thanks for the comment and hope the situation gets better! I don't want this on Steem 😭😭😭😭 Think about, if more people start to do all this!! Oh myyyy!! hahaha this is bad! ❤️
ps I don't know how I was not following you but I just realized it. I loved your puppet video and it won my heart💘I am SMASHING the follow right now! 😀
💘
People beg on steem now?
Weird, ain't it?
ya
I think you handled this perfectly!!! I approached it as discussion with him trying to get further information about the situation to which he blocked me, totally spammy scam 💩

Oh myyyyy.. hahhaa Thanks for the comment and glad you didn't believe the guy easily and send him $200 (2STEEM in the future) hhahah ❤️
Hehe yea I tried to get him to join my giveaway for 3.7 STEEm but he wanted nothing to do with it 🤣
I never give hand outs but a well deserved hand up I am all for!

Ohh sorry Ben is again on steemit? That sad. Few months ago there was Discord gaming group Gamers Unoted where guy @slothyy was leader and he started to do they same thing. Beging for cash, some excuses because somebody stole hisaptop etc.
I know that you Mo covered his Nick name, but maybe his nick was related to animals somehow? @slothyy Has several accpunts in this way and he was doing this all over on every account. @therealwolf discoverd his scamm sheme and wrote a post abaout this.
To allow people - don't help peoples who begs for cash with silly stories and excuses like "i dont have food" "I can't make content because I don't have laptop, bit somehow I contacted dniu via laptop etc."
Just ignore him, everybody of you worked hard for earning your Steem. Asking for cash like this is worse than being hobo or bum, because you don't even see who is behind this messages.
This one was actually @chinotattooart .
Thanks for stopping by and dropping some info. I'm so not into the way of people begging for STEEM..
You crazy asian girl! 😎 I hate you! 🤣
Ok let's be serious...
Im living on my own since 2007 and also knew that you have to put some work to get some money. Nothing its free but I still got this empathy somewhere inside of me and when this guy wrote to me I've just said "hmm... Ok I was in similar situation in my life few months ago that i don't have money for food so I knew how it is and 2 STEEM is very low amount. Good karma always back etc..." but from the other side I still got the same type on view as You that nothing its free and this is begging for money. Though that no one probably replied to him so he is still looking and I can be his only hope. Sorry haven't got a time to do a research on his Wallet but you've done it and that was a good thing. You are 100% right in this case and I can see thar more people have sent as well. But let's get to the punchline. For me is a good karma to help someone and if the person on the other side lied to me then karma will go back to that person. "Its all about the motherfuckin' energy. I'm telling you" but conclusion is to do a research before from now on.
Thank you for letting know around about it.
Bless Ya! :)
Hahaha Neo! I'm so hoping he will stop soon. This annoys me and I even wrote the whole post about it! I got your point about karma as I actually believe 'action equal reaction'. Let's see what will happen next. Bless ya! :)
No one contacted me personally but I saw someone write a comment (in Spanish) on someone's post asking for $ and I basically replied the exact same thing as you. I just gave him tips on how to be more successful here lol
Exactly! What a way!
Excuse me for scrolling down the wallet and check all the names. I feel like this post deserves to be read. Again, to each his own and I hope you understand why I am tagging you guys ❤
Please also read through all the comments I got by far.
@pangoli @baart @tarazkp @evildido @adam.tran @yhaulez @antigenx @dedicatedguy @yungchief @rebeccafl @tibfox @ajayyy @dynamicrypto @businesswri @jaraumoses @tesaganewton @samic @nikema
@patrickulrich Oh my god, you too????? Can't believe it Patrickkkkk! :D
@acidyo Oh my, Aceeeee, you too????? T^T
Yup I fell into it too. I'm actually very happy that you made this post though because I should have done what you mentioned and told him to Fundition. I just got caught up in the thoughts of "what if" and figured, if true, he'd be able to make more use of it than I could. I'll definitely be taking your advice on the recommendation next time!
You're too kind Patrickkkk :D
I told the person that this isn't the way and gave him the benefit of the doubt. it might be worth more to him than it is to me, it might not. He might be a scammer (likely) but he might not. I also told him that it is this that is harming the system and destroying community trust. The more this happens, the less people will be charitable in the future toward certain communities. People are short sighted.
Agreed! Thanks for coming by and dropping off some thoughts!
Oh well, dude made it seem like he was gonna fall off the face of the Earth if he didn't get the help he needed. 10steem, he said, for a bag of rice. I did point out a few arts contest he could join but then he said some stuff about Venezuela being at the brink of war. So I checked the wallet to find that so many others have supported. I figured it might be a scam and did it anyways. So yeah, I would not feel good to find that he was a scam afterall, but if it was for the right reason, then at least I helped.
i ain't doing that shit anymore. There's Fundition.io
You have such a kind heart that what I would guess and yes, many good way to get helps. This is totally not one of them, at least I don't think it is. Thanks for the thoughts! :)
Well i dont know the veracity of the story he presented, but i felt the need to show love to somebody in needy.
What still shocked me was the fact that there was no feedback after the transaction was completed.
All i wish him is good luck .
@jatinhota @drsensor @capybaraexchange @kaliangel Please consider reading through the post and comments <3
Thanks for sharing this. I had blocked his chat before you mention me 😂. It's quite strange that his response is to fast after I send him some STEEM. From the posts he writes seems he has a mental illness 🤔
I also suggest him contact @dcomix. Let's see if he post something useful in there or not 😌
Hahaha this guy..
You handled it very well Girl
I lost everything. From a materialistic
Stand point
I do have full custody of my kids and I would never ask for hand outs
I have always done well and I love to help and support others.
It's been a struggle rebuilding
However when the victory comes it will be sweet
On a side note.
I see lots of content on Thai and Bangkok
Mo
None of it compares to yours
Your shit rocks. Pardon my French
Keep it up girl

STOPYou handled the situation very well. In my opinion, messages like this are spammy. I rarely get "serious" discord DMs, it's often people just dropping a link or a copypasta to dozens of people.
And you weren't too mean: if this person was being annoying or too pushy, it's your right to tell him to stop (in a nice way). It's his fault in the first place !

Thank you for the thoughts!. This actually makes me a bit kinder type of person LOLOLOL Glad you're not one of the peeps that been getting asked. You have a great one! Oh! Thanks again for the support! :)
Postingan yang sangat bagus saudara ku ,semoga sukses selalu dalam berkarya di esteem ini...
I read all the comments and your post.
I agree with everything!
even beggers have to do something to get money.. whether they busk/perform or sing or write a sad note and you see their sad situation on the street
Hola @waybeyondpadthai, este usuario lo vi realizando múltiples cambios a moneda local a través de la casa de cambio que uso lo cual me pareció un poco extraño, no muchas personas cambian tanto STEEM. Entonces empece a realizar una pequeña investigación y encontré tu mensaje en su billetera y llegué a este post, yo al igual que el soy venezolano y estoy en total desacuerdo con lo que esta haciendo, si bien en Venezuela estamos pasando por una situación económica difícil sus actos no me parecen del todo honesto.
No se cual es la situación de este usuario o si simplemente busca aprovecharse, pero puedo decirte que la mayoría de los venezolanos somos trabajadores, creativos y buscamos la forma de seguir adelante.
Realmente quiero creer que no es un estafador ya que hace poco recibió lo cual presumo fue una donación por casi 200 STEEM de parte de @fyrstikken.
Entiendo todo pero cada loco con su tema. Gracias por tu response. Steem on! :) ❤️
