Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
CEX are voting with user funds, DEX users are unaware of this when they deposit BTS onto these suspect CEX.

**Describe the solution you'd like**
Create a new warning, similar to the scammer warnings, alerting the user that when the user sends BTS to a suspect CEX that they will vote using their funds without their consent, potentially to the detriment of the network.

**Describe alternatives you've considered**
N/A - Complain?

**Additional context**
Certain CEX appear to be voting for destructive refund400k to the detriment of the Bitshares network (development, marketing, integration, infrastructure, etc). CEX see the DEX as a direct competitor and appear to be taking action against it, users should be aware of the risks of depositing BTS to such hostile CEX.

Research direction

Use the existing scammer-warning implementation as the entry point, then trace the send flow and how the UI identifies suspect CEX accounts. Done means a user sending BTS to a listed suspect CEX receives a clear warning about voting with deposited funds; the issue does not name specific files or tests.
