Speaking of that... PM me your price for all of them.. Title: Re: A warning about my sp20 thread. Post by: redsn0w on February 14, 2015, 02:21:47 PM Thanks for the "report" I've left him a negative feedback, I hate these various impostors.

Some people have previously said that a thread is not officially a sales thread unless someone gets a fake payment address, so I guess your thread is now officially a fake sales thread. Some people also will sometimes post a warning about potential impersonators in their OP and will include their UID# to check against when receiving payment addresses.

I did post in the original thread. I wanted to catch attention here. I do agree that technically this thread does not belong here but it is effective to grab attention. |
