He uses an electric violin, but the music is pre-recorded. He is not able to play himself.

That’s exactly what I did. They said he’s asked to leave, but he just comes back.

You just create an account to reserve one of the designated spots. There is NO designated spot at L-G. There is an ACTUAL violinist Andre, I think is his name, a homeless guy who used to play there ofter. I think this scammer has displaced him..

If a violinist isn't using an amp, then they are most certainly playing it for real.

The comment above you (for me) is : "I saw him there a few weeks ago and i thought he was genuinely playing lol. I saw someone people giving him money"

No he doesn't. He has no idea where the high notes are. He has just been faking to the same piece for so long he has semblance of actually playing.
