Hello All,

Giving a heads up to everyone dealing with or thinking about dealing with poseden, please be warned that he is a broker trader who is either loosing control of his traders or getting greedy. He started out doing a great job, but now his friends are going on hold more and more frequently. A shame, as I had dealt with him successfully before.

These two are ones that went red on me email==maria@mobsters.commaria@mobsters.com=maria@mobsters.commaria@mobsters.com/email and email==brian@collector.orgbrian@collector.org=brian@collector.orgbrian@collector.org/email. on Comps.Something4Nothing.

I do not pay on green, so am not out any money, but many of you do. And certainly, I am out the prize I was going to receive for now, and the time it took dealing with him.

He was given the opportunity to have his traders send in their ID's, and instead, chose to accuse a site owner of scamming him for not returning his message...which was never sent according to S4N.

Thank you,

Margot wink

Thanks for the info, Margot. I have a couple of trades with him and I'll watch it carefully.

Thanks for the heads-up. I have an ongoing broker agreement with him. I know he has a difficult time getting the refs, too, so I'm very patient, but I haven't heard from him in a little while. He's generally a good trader, though, so hopefully things will be okay.

I gave him a trade on yournintendowii and he mentioned nothing about brokering. All of a sudden I have 8 credits for a 5 credit offer and another one just signed up. All of them have similar email addresses like bad.com, station.com, god.com etc.

He told me he gave the trade to somebody and they couldn't do it so he gave it to somebody else. Then he wanted to get paid for both of them. Since then, 6 more have signed up. Something real strange going on here.

I've already contacted TRAINN and told them the referrals are unsolicited.

Be careful.

Just a little update. I now have 9 completed referrals on yournintendowii4free for a gift that only requires 5. I'm guessing 6 of them will go red soon.

His trading privileges are indefinitely suspended, and this was the reason I updated the broker announcement post yesterday. Brokering trades here is on the verge of being forbidden altogether, since it has become a business venture for some who give no regard whatsoever to the quality of their referrals. Some, like posedon, think they can just refund for the reds and continue operating that way, but the issues run deeper than that and will not be tolerated.

->from old topic about me,i always warn all people that i am broker

I do not pay on green, so am not out any money, but many of you do. And certainly, I am out the prize I was going to receive for now, and the time it took dealing with him.

->i completed trade for him on August 29th and he do not pay for me anything to now,because he say he will pay on approval.I say the people that get green for me,wait my friend on approval,and he think i try to scam his money,do not pay anything for him from 15 days,and he contact shop to cancel his order,do not want to wait anymore and green turn red.i say margot that he should cancel trade with me because i can not contact with the man that got green with me,but he think i can not contact with admin site and he open this topiccry


and i will say with all people that want to work with me.i am only broker trader,i can not control quality of my referrals,i am only refund if u do not satisfy with my service.If u are comfortable with this,i will help u.If u do not accept this,do not work with me.I like all of u,get green from many forum,and do u know how many scammer that get ban in 1 days???i trade with all people(newbie to pro)so that i can get many green for for u,how can i control all??give me some ideas if u work like me.

Hello,

Yes, I did just get your message, and I do now understand that you were referring to getting ahold of the trader, not the site owner. I apologize for that. The misuderstanding arose from my asking you to contact the site, and the very next mess I got from you was this.

I must say this, if you are brokering, you [b11a9d65eb0]are[/b11a9d65eb0] responsible for your traders actions, as you are the only one we deal with, well dealt. It all seems to be a moot point now. I wish all of you the best of luck with his trades, and thank you so much dmorris68.

i don't believe you are a broker, but whether you are or not, you or the people you get to sign up, are all frauds. Margot had two reds from you and another user had 9 reds from you. That person also told me that all of the people she got from you had gone on hold on VBux as well, for credit card fraud.

All of the 9 referrals that one of my members obtained from you were in fact the same person. I'd bet everything that it's you and not that you, who can barely speak english, are able to go to a forum and very easily convince people in the US to sign up, through you, for these trades.
And you also just fell victim to scammers there who created a bunch of accounts and fooled you into thinking they were all different people. Yeah, that's believable...

Seriously guys, I'm amazed at the amount of people insisting that he really is what he claims he is. Let's stop and think this through. Some guy shows up with horrible English from Singapore, claiming to be a "ref broker" who knows of some super secret website filled with people who are too stupid to come to fipg and get the trades themselves for more money. Half of his refs go on hold, but the others are fine, so instead of the obvious solution of "half were able to get away with it" we end up with "half of the refs you brokered were bad." He also refunds that money and never seems to complain about the fact that if so many people are going on hold and he's paying them, that he must be losing money.

Am I the only one amazed at how many people are falling for it?

For anyone who's interested, I now have 2 credits and 7 REDS on yournintendowii thanks to Posedon. This idiot needs to get tarred and feathered and drummed the hell out of here.

skepticalcynic

26-09-2007 06:13:14

Anyone who has gotten multiple refs go red from posedon or any other broker needs to let the site know that the refs were obtained through a broker. Otherwise, as I have been told, your account begins to look "suspicious".

From what it looks like to me he's just getting random people and walking them through the offers and telling them to fraud and just hoping they don't go red.

Yea, that's what they did. They didn't even bother to hear my side. I had to practically beg them to tell me which ref it was. Their support sucks! Thankfully that was my first ref toward my second gift.

I highly doubt this. He uses other people to find refs. In other words, he's getting the refs brokered to him as well. I've been working with him for months and I can't tell you how many times his refs have passed approval. Granted, there have been a LOT in the past few weeks to a month or so that have gone red, but he's not deliberately scamming anyone. If he was, I highly doubt he would refund the reds, and I sure as hell wouldn't continue to work with him.

I stood up for him before and I'll continue to do so. He's legit, but his refs lately are not.

You don't honestly believe he's really finding these mysterious people who are too dumb to come to fipg themselves, do you? Trust me, he's not the only person doing this, he's just good at getting away with it and came up with a story that's just barely non-ridiculous enough that some people are believing it.
