That is not me, jetset220, posting messages about selling coins. My account was hacked today and someone is using it to rip off forum members. I only use escrow. I suggest you only use escrow.

The scammers are hacking accounts with a number of post and credibility and ripping off other users.

I cannot post outside of the newbie forum again. So, be warned. jetset220 is my hacked account and the scammer is using it to rip you off.

I did not even receive an email telling me that my email/password had been changed. This forum sucks.

How did your account get hacked? Are you using weak passwords? or opening phished email? Can't you pm John K about this?

More sites / programs need to use an authenticator as well as what you said.

And they should use escrow, it's not the forums responsibility to keep everyone safe.

It's not the forums responsibility, but implementing two-factor auth is relatively simple and will prevent so much drama and scam accusations stemming from hacked accounts
