Just so you all know, exposing fake channels and scam channels on Telegram is not what I would PREFER to be doing with my time. I saw this as a very negative, growing issue that was hurting a lot of people from a monetary, trust and information standpoint and I didn't see a lot being done to fix it. It was also hurting the names of the people being falsely impersonated by these scammers.
A lot of good people I know would ask me "did you see what General McInerney posted on Telegram?" and I knew he was NOT on TG at all so I would tell them... but it happened OVER and OVER again. That is one of the reasons why I asked Gen. Mc to make a video clarifying that he did not have a TG account and with the help of all of you, it helped get rid of his imposter accounts. This was VERY important because I honestly was not sure if this issue on Telegram could ever be fixed or even helped until this happened. Then, shortly after this, I was made aware in my chat of channels like the one for Phil Godlewski and when I checked it out it was VERY easy to see how these networks function/operate and it became very easy to expose them, with all of your help.
Also, I personally know MANY of the people being impersonated and having scams falsely run using their names so I was in unique position to help them. This factor is one of the main reasons why I do this consistently now.
Do I enjoy getting attacked non-stop by fake/scam channels? No. Do I enjoy getting attacked by all of their bots and having to delete thousands of them every day? No. My participation and actions have made me one if their biggest targets... including many death threats.
Again, I would much rather be spending more time exposing other things like I used to but I REALLY believe this needs to be fixed soon or else Telegram will not even be a useable platform for conservatives in the near future.
