Title: Fake vouches and autobuy seller Post by: Loki888 on March 18, 2019, 10:23:28 PM I came across this thread in the digital goods section
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2247696.0 https://archive.fo/Mmyos https://archive.fo/UHQt0 Scammer & OP of the thread: trifecta_giftcards https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1004518 Hes offering to sell discounted gift cards using selly.gg autobuy with no escrow protection with Selly account with no transactions thus no feedback. I brought this up in his thread and he told me he has vouches from another thread with them quoted in his OP here. So I looked at the vouches quoted and they are by the usernames of amsterdamsegracht HellVortZ AlexBeckenhamm I searched for these members and unless I'm doing it wrong, they dont even exist. This dudes a scammer Title: Re: Fake vouches and autobuy seller Post by: sandy-is-fine on March 19, 2019, 02:29:22 AM LOL, good catch again! While I can't say he is a scammer as there are no reports he obviously is using faked vouches because his vouchers are not in the system. That's done a lot on here by scammers. Fake vouches = likely scammer.

This dudes a scammer Yep, I tried searching them up as well and evidently none of them are actual members. I suspect he will now go with the excuse that these customers were from another forum completely, however. It's obvious that he's trying to scam here. He's trying to get you to use autobuy, he's trying to get you to communicate with him offsite so he can prey on unregistered users not being able to view his tainted trust score, and he's selling discounted gift cards. All warning signs already. All he's missing is a self moderated + locked thread. On his thread he actually claims that he accepts escrow, though I highly doubt that is the truth (selly.gg or any other autobuy site isn't escrow). Even if he does, it doesn't mean that he's safe to deal with - the cards that he sells could easily be carded/fraudulently obtained, and as a result, if you are the buyer, you will not be protected even if you do receive the cards through escrow.

He tried to scam others and when he felt that his idea would not succeed he added [VOUCHED]. That's done a lot on here by scammers. Fake vouches = likely scammer. I think that *SCAMMERS* have exceeded the rule of using locked/self-moderated topics, the use of any account that does not contain previous deals of |
