Guy sent me two PMs in under 10 minutes telling me his brother is new here, and can do any trades. like9543 himself joined 8 days ago, so I'd say he's pretty new here, too. Anyway, sounds like a scammer to me, and I think if I had a green from him, I'd be worried about.

No, I haven't PM'd a mod yet, I will do so now ... just wanted to get teh warning out to the community first.

Heh, just for kicks he sent me the same thing. I wonder if it was just random or did he pick the most 1337 members?

Looking at who he sent it to, he was looking for high post count and high TR...

I think he was just picking people off the "logged in today" list... my TR isn't very high. I am 1337 though, maybe JKirk is correct ;)

Any one get a PM from her lately? Seems like she is ignoring. Can the mods somehow check if she checked her PMs?

kala

29-11-2006 16:03:53

WTH she is banned now! There goes like $75+.

GREAT!

kala

29-11-2006 16:05:07

Does she reply on Yahoo Messenger? I don't have it, anyone in touch with her?

You can check to see if your own PMs have been read. If they go from outbox to sentbox or the other way around, they have been read. I just forget which way.

Really! I didn't even know, lol.

Can someone confirm which way it is?

If he/she is cyt0638 like our fraud checks suggest, he will be hard to get ahold of (especially since now he is banned).

If they go from Outbox to Sentbox, the other person read it. ;)

Yeah, this guy/gal will not be returning any messages. He/she was only here to scam, which he/she has been doing for so long. It's getting really old...

I'm going to do a Paypal refund. Should I put the reason as (1) No item shipped, or (2) Seller shipped empty box/contents?

kala

No item shipped

Batman, just email her for refund, she will pay you back. She has returned all the money that she owed me except $12 now, and she emailed me telling me she will get the rest by Dec. 12th because she does not have enough right now.

She just made a stupid mistake, but she wasn't here to scam us.
