I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that this is the same scammer as before. Is there any way to IP ban this guy or otherwise prevent him from making all these accounts?

I was worried about this. The same issue happened on Discord. He uses a VPN to bypass the IP bans given by Discord. Both of the main antkeeping servers have been assaulted by around 150-200+ of this person's alt accounts. I am unsure about how to deal with something like this on Formiculture.

I personally only buy from legit people that IK that aren't alts or people IK from discord. If you ever find something like this then don't buy just to be careful. some good signs that it is fake and a scam is by looking at the profile. If there's no picture, very little post and no location then It can possibly be a scammer.

Still don’t know why drew hasn’t banned the original account. No offense but formiculture needs more/stricter mods.

I should be a mod.
Take some pride in your shop. Post photos of the colonies and use correct grammar.

I actually agree. You’d be a great candidate. FC used to have more mods back in like 2015 but they all quit the hobby.
