Hey Etsy, how about stopping anyone from using your name in a profile?

So many scammers are hitting up new sellers by pretending to be Etsy. They are sending messages out trying whatever they can to hack into a Etsy shop or bank account.
What's surprising to me is that these messages have the words Etsy in them,
Etsy Staff, Etsy Support, etc.

And its because under your profile, you can change your name to whatever you want.

It's about time that Etsy now blocks accounts from being able to use their name.

So I've thought about that before. At first it seemed so simple, knowing they can block you from using certain words. So I tried to figure out if there were any legit names that would contain it. Unfortunately in this instance, all the Betsy's would be screwed and not allowed to use their real name.
