Title: "Trade Fortress" on Skype isn't me.
Post by: 🏰 TradeFortress 🏰 on March 23, 2013, 08:26:06 AM
Just a warning: Trade Fortress (skype name: tradefortress) is not me. Has made a trade of Walmart GCs that is OK so far.

He is apparently Wardrick (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=85316) (registered March 11st).

While my name isn't unique, it's kinda shady to ride on someone else's rep. Not saying he's a scammer, but don't think it's me :)

If you're in the WoT anyone can verify if random account is or is not you by asking them to sign, and so you don't have to keep an eye on each and every venue out there and fight the losing battle of trying to publicize these "x is not me, even if I'm also x" notices.

One of the main advantages of the entire system.

I'm in OTC (http://bitcoin-otc.com/viewratingdetail.php?nick=TradeFortress), this is just a warning to people so they don't accept a trade without checking it's not an imposter first.

I've had this Skype forever, it's the name of a game. Who the hell are you? I do have a lot of sales, I don't need to impersonate somebody to make money.

Calm down, I'm just warning people who might assume you are me because we go by the same name.
