My apologies. This is the first bit of code I've written. Spent all day trying to find a way to sort it and this is my last resort. When someone forwards a message with a username I've defined - the bot sends a message back saying it's a real user. When someone forwards a message with no username, the bot sends a message back saying it's probably a scammer... but when someone forwards a message from someone with no username and who's disallowed message forwarding in their Telegram settings, I get an undefined attribute error.

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'username'
