This will be the first time i will be making a suggestion on UTOPIA.IO and I feel good contributing to the open source. My contribution is based on an important aspect of the steemit blockchain which is **TRANSFER OF SBD OR STEEM**. Just of recent on a Whatsapp group I belong, an issue arose pertaining to transfer of SBD because we have on the group page two of us with almost the same username. My own username is @camillius and the other person; a female has her own username to be @camilus. Now if not for my timely intervention, someone almost made the mistake of transferring SBD into her account instead of transferring it to me. The purpose of making this suggestion is to prevent such an ugly mistake from happening in future if in case the one who mistakenly transfer the SBD has no means of contacting the wrong receiver. # My suggestions are: 1)DISPLAY OF PROFILE PICTURE: After typing the name of the receiver, the profile picture of such a person receiving either the STEEM or SBD to be transferred should display just like the whatsapp screenshot below   You will observe that after typing **''steem''** the first name of the person I want to contact, some names with that search result popped up and even though, I have saved a lot of names using **steem** as the first name, but their real name as the second name, I was able to identify the person I wanted to contact using the profile picture to identify the person. So there is no way I would have made mistake sending the right message to the wrong person. I know we have people on steemit who do not use their pictures as their profile picture, so this will lead me to the second suggestion which is: 2)PROVISION OF A CONFIRMATORY PAGE WITH DETAILS: Using my bank transfer method as an example. Observe the picture below  The picture above shows where I will type the amount I want to send to someone after which I can click on the **Confirm** button to proceed with the transfer. Even after clicking on the confirm button, my bank gives me the privilege of going through the transfer form again before I finally complete the transfer process just in case I might have made a mistake either with the person I want to transfer to or with the amount I want to transfer. After I might have proofread through the transfer form and I can ascertain that there is no mistake again, then I can click on the **CONFIRM TRANSFER** button to finish the transfer process.  ## Results I believe if this is implemented by the Steemit board, the transfer issues on steemit will be solved and no one will have to fall victim of making mistake during transfer. <br /><hr/><em>Posted on <a href="https://utopian.io/utopian-io/@camillius/bringing-an-end-to-transfer-mistakes">Utopian.io - Rewarding Open Source Contributors</a></em><hr/>
