Do you even read or do you know how to read @arcange? Which part of my message above is confirmed scam? I posted two links, did you even check them out? I ask you a question, but you do not bother to answer - I am tired of robots. For a moment I fell for you being a legit service, I even resteemed it!
I compared the legitimate website with the one you posted about, AND ON THE LEGITIMATE WEBSITE YOU ARE NOT ASKED FOR ANY STEEMIT KEY (not like the one you posted about, that masquerades as being the same service).
btw - I don't follow links blindly - like how do I know that your "vote for my witness" is not a phishing attempt? You want to vote for a witness, open the sidebar and click on "Vote for Witnesses".
Before I go for any links, I have my Norton Security Software check them out (Norton Safe Search) - but the lack of a security certificate is usually a dead giveaway. Even if it has a https URL the browsers I use, as well as my Norton Safe Search, would add a warning sticker to it that it may contain unsafe content. Firefox automatically blocks unsafe content, and you would have to 'unlock' to even go to the site.

Yes, I can read and read you comment.
Insults are useless and for your information, contrary to my warning-bot, I am a human that need to sleep and that sometimes is away from keyboard.
My post is about is about scammers that, unfortunately for the steempix.com domain name owner, used an alternative extension of the same domain name.
Which part of my message above is confirmed scam?
As scammer often register all free or cheap extension of the same domain, my bot may trigger on similar words. This is called false-positive. This is what happened with your comment.
OK, I sort of understand, but then your bot would flag legitimate paypal links just because there is a lot of phishing going on with paypal? It is sort of a GIGO program then that needs tweaking to filter out legitimate sites. If this is the case, then your bot is blackballing a lot of innocents! I mean, who can afford to buy and park hundreds of domains just to keep spammers and scammers from using your name?
My bot is not flagging but issuing warnings only. Any flag is done manually.
It is not GIGO program, monitoring and tweaking is done.
Out of thousands warnings sent, I had only a few false-positives (can be counted on the fingers of one hand).
