That's true if the scammer is attempting to extract money from readers with obvious fraud, but when it comes to social media and in particular to steemit.com rewarding for content, we should only consider the content not the poster, unless we have clear evidence the poster has violated someones intellectual rights, we should be flexible and not harass the poster to prove his identity. Mind you I am talking about the poster's privacy and not supporting theft of intellectual property for material gains.  The situation that we had here is as follows, a good writer copied her previous work that was posted elsewhere to steemit, she got an instant response from the readers with up-votes that rewarded her nicely, should we have waited a few days to investigate if the content was plagiarized or not before casting our vote? of course not we are to give the poster the benefit of the doubt, but at the same time give the original author if  he finds out that his intellectual property was stolen, a way to report it to the community, hence my suggestion to add a report button. Will some people get away with stealing someones else's work? yes, but it's a small trade off compared to policing every post. Of course I will not be happy if someone does steal someone else's work and gets SP/SD rewards for it, because he will be stealing from the entire community not just the original author,. Maybe now we have time to even check for that because the pay period is long, but what happens when we only have a couple of days before payment is due? also who will be the decision maker if action is to be taken? with a decentralized block-chain social media like steemit the action should be built into the system and tested against abuse.
