Whenever we ban a member who is found to be a scammer, they quite often come back
Case in POint
The user ChipsNSoda was banned last night for scamming behaviour.
But the name used for the account was Andrew Turpa
the funds were sent by WesternUnion
his e-mail address is comeandfindme30@yahoo.com
For those who recognize that name:
That is because he scammed on the net before
They previously went under:
retrofan1982@yahoo.com, drnobelprice@yahoo.com.
Now that this account has been banned chances are a new one will pop up
Fortunately, if you are collecting from Western UNion you NEED ID
So chances are the name will be the same-
PLEASE when entering a trade, for any reason RUN A CHECK
His name was already entrered into the Bad trader list- and Scammer alert.
Ask questions
Ask the community.
The guidelines of if it sounds too good to be true, are often accurate
The guidelines of "if they want quick money, untracible, is often a warning sign
More times than not
And although we don't condone selling or buying, the fact is the ulitmate choice is up to you-
But sales and trades are not that different.
They both take trust, and they both take risk.
So investigate what you can, and be cautious where you can.
If an new information should arise about this particular trader, or any trader you feel should be brought to our attention please contact myself or Eric, or of course TJ
Thanks to people coming forward rather quickly this user name was caught very quickly.
That is exactly why we have built this community.
