Also, can someone tell the CEO that this person is impersonating me? Thanks.
Discussion
good point. nip-05 detects scamers. until now i only thought its for better reading the name.
Yes, this is a good indicator.
What blows me away is that they admit to being fake in the Nostr chat group.
This is the most complicated thing in social networking sites fake identity here the authentication can be reserved on the domain but if he reserved another domain and put the same identity as me how can I prove that he is an impersonator
The domain name. Everyone is thinking we need verification list/providers but that just off loads the problem. You want to be truly verified beyond doubt, go get your own domain.
Fun fact. The account impersonating me is an account that I talked to all day yesterday via Google Translate, discussing censorship of Nostr / Damus in China and helping them find relays to use on nostr.watch π
Yeah, what exactly do you do when someone is impersonating you? Just hope they pay attention to the NIP05?
Or maybe reply to their post to let people know?
