Resurrection of old accounts

Vod, the levels that some persistent scammers will go to in order to achieve their goals makes the mind boggle. In many cases they will try to contact some members that have left feedback, I know this because I have been contacted in the past by several accounts (mostly with a sob story) asking for the trust/feedback to be revised.

There is also a possibility that the account has traded hands and the new buyer is the one that is trying to have the feedback removed in the hope it could be enrolled on a signature campaign one day.

Scammers probably have a calendar to track such things on their many alts.

This is a decision that can be made when you not thinking of what they did in the past OP and they can be a different being but is hard to tell. See it this way, that they're asking for your forgiveness like giving them a second chance, to me I'd say forgive them and remove whatever tag you placed on them and that can happen base on the crime they committed in the past, anyone that have a very bitter offense you let the punishment continue but if the offense is worth forgiven, you let it go.

Why would buying an account ever be acceptable in the first place.

Who in their right mind, would be lazy enough to presuppose the reputation of a previous owner of a failed business?

Stupidity!

You nailed it, obviously scammers can go any length to try to find their way through, I go with you that the majority of this pm could come from scammers or accounts which have changed hands, and I commend the op for sticking to his rules, in fact, this move by the red tagged accounts to pm you in the first place to me looks suspicious, and even though op should consider such requests to remove the tags, the account should/must have shown a good behavior on his return or resumption of activities for a period of which will warrant such requests to be granted.

I'm not in support of buying of account but who's going to stop it in the first place? Nobody can tell if the next man is about to purchase an account or if there's a place they do get these sold account, is something we have to live with.
Never forget that we have many members who don't just open an account for the main purpose, come online make a post earn some merit do something positive that no one has done even teach people more about Bitcoin, share ideas depending on the topic, they open an account just to sell it and make gain. The buyer seems to forget that it won't last, they'd face the music by answering some questions like how, when, what and who gave you the account, they don't mind the reputation of whosoever sold the account to them, is not stupidity they call it business, it can't be stopped.
