Bad trader insearchofjohnny

It really was more of a case of someone wanting to mess with me and misrepresent me than traditional identity theft. Surprisingly, it seemed like the impostor was trying to make a good faith effort to ensure everyone's happiness.

do you have anything to corroborate your story, such as posts that were made by this other person that I could cross-check the IP addresses, or emails that I could trace the header information, or even receipts or tracking #'s from the packages that were sent?

its not that I don't believe you - but it all seems very strange; and unless there is something that gives a concrete explanation behind all of this, I would rather leave any feedback about the situation intact - it does serve as a warning to anyone else to use caution.

...and if this other person was able to access all of your accounts and everything else so easily, who's to say that they can't do it again?

Well, I am glad I havent had a chance to mail my end of the trade yet, I will wait to see what I get first.

I'm done with this site. At the very least, delete my real name from all posts within this thread. I quit. Good day.

That probably means his impostor is done with the site also.

If you are scamming people and looking to rip people off its my opinion that your name shouldnt be removed it should be left so that other people know not to deal with you. Especially if and when you come back under a different screen name.

I am not scamming anyone. Everyone I have dealt with has received legitimate material. I am tired of trying to explain a legitimate situation to get an overreaction reversed. I want my name removed because I guarantee I'm not coming back to this site again. Why would I?

That's really unfair, you can't assume that all traders online are going to cheat you based on the actions of one person. There are plenty of people that post here that have excellent reputations and if they didn't they wouldn't be allowed to trade in this forum. Do you buy anything on eBay or Amazon or do you quake in your boots at the thought of that as well?

I just dont take no chances when it comes to buying from someone I dont know in person sparky, and that includes you. And I guess I do quake In my boots when it comes to eBay and Amazon, I dont like the idea of putting my debit card number out there in cyber space where you dont know who can get a hold of it. Just the way I am big boy, deal with it!

You run the risk of having your credit/debit card hacked no matter if you use it online or at Walmart. Let me ask you this, if you offered something for sale in your local paper, would you have any problem selling it to a person you don't know? And while we're at it, don't call me Sparky nor use this attitude towards me again.
