The fake listings lacked the blue checkmark next to the collection name, which is a sign of a verified collection. The community members in the comments section reported the fake listings and shared tips on how to identify genuine NFTs. They mentioned that legitimate Cone NFTs should have a &quot;reddit&quot; label in the name and a blue/white icon next to it, indicating it's from the &quot;Imagination station x reddit collection.&quot; The discussion emphasized the importance of reporting bad actors, staying safe, and being cautious when purchasing NFTs.
