He's cruising the forums looking for noobs mostly I think and will contact them on aim if he can.....He asked if I was able to trade and then when I wanted him to go green first due to how he contacted me he blocked me.

By any chance is his handle on here "Josh"? I recently was asked by Josh to start a trade for my FreePSPs for his FreeFlatscreens. He was responsive up to the point of me going green. Since then, I've gotten no replies to the PMs I've sent. He did update the trade module to show he's greened, but I show no greens other than what I already had. He logs in every/nearly every day, so I don't know what's up.

You should edit this post to indicate that the AIM name was not JOSHBOX but was instead J0SHBOX.

JOSHBOX

08-06-2005 16:08:30

Wow i cant believe someone was using my name to scam. Anyway that is not even close to my aim screen name and I will never trade in aim without a pm confirmation first to verify.

Someone also tried to impersonate me
with the AIM name JUNIOR668866 (digusting...) if only there was a way we could have a community wise consensus to never use AIM when conducting trades.....

netstat through aim doesn't work anymore since aim changed dc to reroute to prevent ip tracking.
