Trust abuse by a scammer (Fantic)

[erikalui]

This user fantic https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=536948 is abusing the trust system by leaving false ratings on many accounts (mine too). I don't even know who he/she is nor have ever interacted with him but by looking at his "Sent feedback" he seems to be leaving similar ratings on other accounts. It's weird and I guess it can be counted as spam which can call for a ban too.

It could be counted as spam, but I don't think his trust comments are to be considered 'trusted' by the entire community .... or am I wrong? So at the end it is not real a problem.

I know it's not a problem at all because he is himself having 3 DT negatives in his kitty. 


The problem is the spamming and here spammers are banned (whether for posts or for trust). Having not interacted with a user makes his rating meaningless and noticing he leaves similar ratings on any random account can earn him a ban.

Are you sure? I have never heard of someone banned due the spam of negative (or positive -neutral , why not?) trust. Can you give me some link (of thread) so I can read them? Thanks.

I have read a case where a user kept spamming MZ's trust by creating multiple accounts while here the case is the opposite (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1000239.60) Symantec was banned for about 2 weeks if I remember. If this case is considered spamming, it should be banned too.

i got 2 negative trust from him after i caught some of his alts and as a result i got 2 negativ trusts, whatever he is not on default trust so it's not really important.

He claimed that I scammed him of 0.7 BTC 


I don't remember talking to him in this birth  You atleast caught some of his alts while I dint know about this user until I saw his rating on my account but I'll let him be in peace.


I'm locking this thread now.
