Hi Everyone. I need to post this because there is a Scam Artist pretending to sell A2 Terminators. His user name is Metairie. His real name though is George G Bonck, 1317 Hymelia Ave Metairie, La. 70003 Cell phone - 504-419-4576 Below is an example of one of the posts he is using to scam people. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1326373.new#newI have this information on him because I have unfortunately been scammed by this Con Artist. I want to post this to make everyone aware of this guy!! and to make sure it does not happen to anyone else on the thread! He needs to be taken off of Bitcointalk! Has anyone else had any dealing with this guy? I have a lot of proof of this, Screen shots of messages, of calls, payment transactions etc. Scam artists need to be taken off Bitcointalk.... they are holding back BTC

Scammers generally aren't taken down from the forum. You need to use your caveat emptor while dealing with a seller, next time.

Because he is going to keep scamming people Right but it's one of the quirks of this forum that scams are not policed. The mods can do nothing about it, so it is imperative that we use our brains. Sorry you got scammed, but hopefully you'll smarten up for next time.

It would help if you posted more details about the scam. You mentioned something about fake escrow in that thread. Can you post proof of that?

Stops other newbies falling for the scam by the same user.
If this is your opinion don't come to scam threads.

When the scam thread is on a forum to talk about Bitcoins, which is why I am here, then I will surely point out the fact that no one should give a damn about this guy losing a pittance. There may be a schmuck got screwed forum out there, you guys can feel free to look.

Lol, amazing that when anyone tells the truth and does not candy coat life they are an asshole or a prick. The facts are simple, the guy is an idiot and got scammed, that is the direct result of him being an idiot, anything beyond that point is useless.

Markj113 - You understand exactly why I posted this. To raise awareness of scams and to stop other newbies getting scammed. Morantis - You're just a man with a fork in a world full of soup You're missing the point of why I'm posting this.

Markj113 - You understand exactly why I posted this. To raise awareness of scams and to stop other newbies getting scammed. Morantis - You're just a man with a fork in a world full of soup You're missing the point of why I'm posting this. No, I fully understand your motivation, I never said that I did not understand it, again, TRY READING. What I said and continue to say is that I fully and completely disagree with your motivation. You were stupid, thanks for filling the world in on your complete inability to make a transaction with any sense. There will be more, just like you, hundreds and hundreds will follow a scam to the ends of the world and back. You are not going to stop them, you are not going to educate them, you are not going to change them, you are the proof that the only thing that will smarten them to the tiniest degree will be failure. It is the consummate teacher and the only way that people JUST LIKE YOU will learn. If you think this method of alerting the masses is effective, then I ask you one simple question........why did you not read the thousands of posts like this first, before you got screwed? I am done with this discussion, no one sees the truth and no one sees that there is no teaching the blind to see. Let them walk off a cliff and leave the rest of us intelligent people to conduct business without them messing about.

Let them walk off a cliff and leave the rest of us intelligent people to conduct business without them messing about. Ok keyboard warrior ... You didn't read my post properly. I'm trying to raise awareness of this particular scam artist. I checked the thread for some info on this guy, seemed legit. I got scammed. lesson learned. My intention of this post is to stop others getting scammed by this guy. Sure, people will get scammed by others on this page in the future. Nobody can stop that, but perhaps someone who is thinking of buying these miners from this particular scammer may read this and think twice. If I prevent even one person getting scammed, I'll be very happy. Fair play to you Morantis - Your posts here are controversial and entertaining and may encourage more people to read this thread, therefore increasing the awareness of this scam artist. It's posts like yours people want to read! Please keep posting here! Say something else super duper intelligent Because your self proclaimed intelligence is superior to all of us.
