Basically, a couple of days ago, i got accused of being a scammer when i never scammed anyone. Some girl came to my event and accused me of scamming her then she poofed. I don't know if someone else with this name scammed her or someone impersonating me is trying to give me a bad rep. I was going to post a thread on it but i let it go. Then, today i went to an event and another girl accused me of being a scammer. She said her brother said i scammed him. Now i know something fishy is going on. Someone out there with my name is scamming people. I thought the first girl was just trying to scare me or troll but now i see that's there's a legit scammer out there with the same name. Also, my name use to be "flash" and "kidnem" and some other names but i changed them overtime because i got bored and other reasons (been playing this game for 5 years and i would change them to spy on other mafias/groups). These girls claimed the scams are recent so that's how ik someone stole my name just to give me a bad rep because i just changed my name to wicked about a month ago when i started to play yoville again (i had quite for a few months and my old friends stopped playing so i wanted to start over)... I just don't what to do.. I don't want to change my name because i don't want to have to tell all my yofriends (i have alot) and i shouldn't have to for crimes i didn't even commit. I actually do the opposite of scam and give out free coins to people (go to job events and tip people thousands, just randomly trade people and give out coins, give out coins to help people make their places better, etc.). I'm just scared people might think i'm the one who has been scamming and report me. I've been playing since 09 and never been banned or had any trouble with people (until now, from these false accusations) ingame or Zynga. What do i do??

- I didn't read this over like i usually do because it's long so some stuff might be out of place (grammar/punctuation wise)

i dont think you would scam anyone if you did it must have been accidental. but there has been people impersonating contest groups and other people we know trying to make them look bad

If you didnt do it, then no need to post this
if you did, bye bye if they look into it.

Ignore them. If you know you didn't, who cares what they think?

Even if you get reported, they would have had to report the scammer and it be you for it to stick. Might changed your name, I would say this is a better reason then just being bored with it.

I've seen someone with your name, use to be sorta friends with this guy.
But he was very evil with programs and all, but I stop being friends with him ages
ago, Not sure if you are him, if you are ... (Opssies) He isn't a pleasant fellow, and
it could be he, who is the scammer, wouldn't put it past it.
Best advice: If this is happening to you often, change your name.
It's not worth getting reported and losing your account over just because you enjoy
that name.

Changing your name does nothing as you always retain your Yoworld ID number
