Impersonation.

I got impersonated on scratch, the user stated they were my alt, but the only alt user i have is @icy-bfdi, they impersonated to say bad things and get me banned, is there a way i can stop this? the person made 3 accounts pretending to be me, also, i have L in my username, which lowercase L looks exactly like upper case i.
say [this is annoying and i dont want to report and email st everytime someone impersonates me,]

Use the Help Center https://scratch.mit.edu/contact-us/ to speak to ST about this matter. Keep in mind this person isn't using the same IP address or email as you, so ST'll be able to see the truth very easily.

but a friend i had got banned even though they had a completely different ip adress and email, the account was @Xx-Gradient-xX the fake account had underscores, i had an imposter too, possibly by the same person who impersonated @Xx-Gradient-xX though i contacted st because i instantly got warned by people about an impersonator and contacted st before the situation got worse.

SkyCedar is right. we can't solve anything about that matter, unfortunately. use contact us and you should get an answer from the ST.

i'm sorry this happened to you.

i already contacted st, and they did respond and remove the impersonator, but what i was worried by is my friend got banned for an impersonator, thankfully they got their account back. but it was just annoying to deal with.
