Title: Fontase twitter scam -With Proof
Post by: btcdee on May 09, 2016, 09:06:03 PM
Fontase on twitter is a scammer!!!! He is not the original fontase many came to trust and follow. His twitter account has thousands of followers and he frequently posts updates to seem legit. But don’t let him fool you! I know this because he scammed me and a group of my friends. He took our bitcoin and never returned back to us. All our efforts to contact him have been ignored. If you have been scammed by him please share it in this thread.

EDIT:
Thank's Habeler876 for supplying the proof below

Having three newbie members all go towards the same target in quick succession means pretty much nothing here. To those who have been here for a while it just looks more like someone shilling for themselves/their friends to try and gang up against someone.

How's about one of you provides some sort of proof towards your accusations? I recall him always paying out giveaways and such when I used to follow him.

Fair point.
My account is 9 months old and I do have a posting history. I am certainly not here to spread false rumors.
I will remove this thread within a week if nothing more substantial is shared.

I would like to come out and say that the person behind the @Fontase handle on Twitter is indeed a scammer.

He took 2 BTC for admission into his "pump and dump group" and then went silent, inevitably blocking my friend (@iHodl) who paid him and was communicating with him through Twitter Dm's. Fontas agreed to taking 2 BTC up front and then a further 2 BTC after the first successful trade that he provided, but he never followed up.

This is the DM history between them (iHodl requested the address be kept private but it can be revealed upon request):

I have tried contacting the person behind the @Fontase account but have only been ignored. I would just like to extend this warning out to anyone considering giving this person your money. He puts on a persona through his Twitter posts that he is legit but he is just the typical crypto scammer, though in this case he outright stole the money sent to him.

Anyone reading this, if you could report the @Fontase Twitter account I would appreciate it. If we can get him banned that would at least prevent him from using the Fontas brand to steal more money from people looking to join his group.

You can report here: https://support.twitter.com/forms/impersonation

Thanks

You should have used the correct form for the scam accusation.
Anyway, thanks for the warning.

Be careful guys. He is at it again and he pinned a post enticing others to join his so Fake Pump and Dump Group.

DO not send him your money.

after seeing the accused person's profile on twitter i am shocked that how you guys are trapped with his baby scam attempts ::) , first of all i am hearing this crypto pump and dump company and second this user is giving email address to contact him which is based on anony server.
Code:
Fontas@2trom.com
, his recent tweets are bullshit and all the followers are mostly bought ones.
