Wow i though i would do some investigating about how they are scamming and getting away with it.
Number one scam place telegram of course.
I will not share everything i saw on there in 5 minutes to give knowledge to the wrong people but where it comes down to is the following:
There is a group with 108k members and it’s some sort of ponzi-scheme, as a new member you have to like, download and boost specific members, and you climb up member levels, there is a whole “print request tutorial” how to that smart.
The higher level you are, the more your MW profile gets in the draw.
I think this is enough info for now, but you can check it yourself if you just search “makerworld” on telegram.
I will add the “tutorial” in here with a file sharing link, that one explains in detail what you have to do as a new member there, if someone knows how to add a pdf let me know please, the pdf deletes itself after 3 days.
It’s really sick, made a lot of screenshots but don’t think it’s smart to share here but i did send them to MW staff and notified them.
