Title: Possible scammer found.
Post by: Klengefazat on January 22, 2016, 10:17:37 AM
Please check out this topic :

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1336834.0

This user claim that he is selling invites and accounts, but i have very stong proof he try to scam.

Facts :

1) He locked his topic so no reply possible to warn users.

2) And this is the most important : Broadcast.net (BTN) have the invite system closed since November 2015.

It would be great if any member from btn can confirm my claim because i am newbie here and no one will take my words for serious.

Thanks

Chances are very high that you're right... A newbie account that makes a locked topic selling something without mentioning escrow... High chance of scammy activity.
Especially if you say he's selling stuff that cannot be sold anymore (haven't checked this claim tough)

Mabye somebody on DT will leave him a neutral or negative tag so potential newbie buyers are warned?

This is not his first account. He has opened almost 10 accounts in the last 30 days and he posts the same or almost the same content. You're right 100%.

He's a scammer

Care to share those accounts/threads? I have reported the 3 dupe thread he made from the current account, should be deleted in a few mins-hours

He has more accounts but unfortunately this is all I could find atm.

I will also keep watching the digital goods section and I will report here if I notice his new accounts.

I must have nodded of, who is Lab an Alt of?

Who is removing their posts? - Wouldn't it be better to have the threads locked?

Wouldn't it be better to leave posts so that future duplicate posting by Alts can be detected?

True, but hopefully by then their user profile will have been splashed with red negative trust / feedback and only the dumbest https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1340106.msg13670790#msg13670790 will trade with them.

Here's another one: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1351811.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1351811.0)

He says that he is a staffer on PassThePopcorn and that he's going to sell only 2 invitations per month. Selling invitations of PTP is strictly forbidden by their tracker and whoever does that will be disabled. This guy is a liar 100%.

This is his URL for sales: https://payivy.com/v/a8acc (https://payivy.com/v/a8acc)
