Mod, please ban this Cryptock account.
He'll scam more.
Still no refund even when he's already online and changed his skype's name.

Mods never ban scammers, they (scammers) will get negative trust because of that.
This says all (When i checked his trust rating)
Code:
Trust summary for Cryptock

This user's password was reset recently.

Sorry for your loss, hope he will refund to you. You shouldn't believe with someone by judging his light green trust (It also quite old, the trust was given 1.5 years ago) and his rank.

Its also dependent on who gives you trust and what you do with it  ;)
(Not dissing hedgy73 either. I think the Cryptock account has been bought.)

I'll take a play out of Lauda's book  :)

The Cryptock account will be marked until the user comes and reconcile the three (current count) accusations of scamming. From users: messe, nghinv, and Guerrero214.
I've also made the user aware on their most recent post to warn others and also speed the process to resolution.

I look forward to Cryptock's explanation to you all.

probably a bought account. Don't trust anyone always use escrow.


That guy scammed me too just Now.


Did you check the feedback before dealing with him? Again don't trust anyone blindly.

I've sent a pm to hedgy73 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=162384) to remove the positive feedback. Hoping some DT members will give him negative feedback's soon.

Have changed trust from positive to negative looks like the accounts possibly changed hands recently.

Thanks for the message iwantapony :)

He posted on my thread to buy itunes and then disappeared quickly. It's sad to see hero members scam too. Sorry for your loss OP always use escrow mate.
