Thanks for the mention! It's a shame people still fall for scams on Discord. It happens for gamers all the time, so it's no surprise it happens for us, too. There are messaging options inside HIVE, but nothing yet on par with Discord. It would be handy to bring that on-chain, perhaps encrypted with memo keys? I don't know how to even start that kind of codong process, but a HIVE-based memo app would be useful. Encryption meets cryptocurrency!

    There is messaging in peakd and ecency that I think use keys, but with messages off-chain. Unfortunately they seem to be separate, but Snapie will use the ecency one. You can't rely on getting a message through unless you know what dapps people use. At least it's hard to fake identity.

    It sounds like this scam was more sneaky and used the recovery account. I'm not sure how it worked as I think that still needs a key.
