Title: Microsoft_Seller: likely scammer
Post by: Lohoris on August 19, 2014, 02:59:19 PM
User Microsoft_Seller (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=365481) is trying to sell "swiss credit cards" in a moderated topic (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=735820.0), where he deletes all "irrelevant posts" (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=735820.msg8435802#msg8435802).

Deleting posts in your own selling thread is a very big warning sign for scamming.

Pay attention.

Agreed.  My post was deleted as well.  Poor grammar, equally illiterate newb accounts to "back him up", no real proof of product.  MENTIONING THE SWISS NATIONAL BANK?!?!?!? Lolz

Stay away.

You need proof of scamming before feedback can be left. Although I agree it looks shady proof is still required.

Nope.
Deleting posts is shady enough to reverse the burden of proof to his side.

I will wait for some poor soul to confirm before I leave neg feedback. For now reporting it as a scammer here is enough to me..


Can you please provide quotes of deleted posts?

I wouldn't open a thread on the scam section about a member only based on him having a self-moderated thread and deleting posts, even if that is suspicious.

But it seems he is a scammer, since there is a member claiming he was scammed by him: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=762855.0

However, this member doesn't give any evidence about this scam.
