Unique Namecoin names can further be distinguished in UI, with color and similar tricks.
My "name" is unique. It contains Cyrillic characters. Unique names is not a way to prevent such scams
I've added a way for users to tag accounts as "verified" on memo++. Link in bio.
I like this memo++ Chrome extension. Verified a few users on their profile pages. Not muted anyone yet ;)

Muted?
They will still get a notification if you reply directly to them, but should they encounter your posts anywhere else, the posts will be hidden, showing: "X has been muted"
Just added this. Now muted users are hidden for good, even in notifications.
(If you recognise your address, no worries I've unmuted you, just testing)
"1LczRLXR7DAkWkFYuLjUAXVEYERdyQ5yMM has been muted."
For once, the incomprehensible BCH addresses have a visual use
That is easily solvable on a UI side as well. Highlight all those imposters tricks with color. Works pretty well, especially when combined with "connections" percentage.
That said, you name is only unique in terms of unicode. We can very easily create a framework that will help in distinguishing "perceived uniqueness".
