I keep seeing this person more and more, and their posts are very interesting......
"HEY!!! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi guys! I've been having problems with the foot so haven't been online much. The most embarrasing thing happened to me today though. I had to go get the stitiches out and as I was walking to the front desk I was so hot and started getting really dizzy and finally all I saw was black and then fell backwards right in the waiting room in fromt of all this old people. It was so embarrasing! I've never had anything like that happen to me. They got me in a swirly chair and rolled me back to the room and gave me a coke and candy bar and started drencing water all over my head. I just got my hair cut and totally ruin't the do. They had to call the hubby to come drive me home and he saw my new haircut all string & wet! LOL! Sorry about the spelling and all I'm just really tired! I did want to come bye and tell everyone hey and I hopefully will be fully recvered soon (its already been 3 weeks) and will be back to posting!! HUGS TO ALL! PAM " ....um.....kay? This one was interesting. It was started by lovetvclassics (isn't their aliases?) and asked people to list bad traders as a service. The loudonslim name came up, and here is the reply by beatyp: "It's pretty easy when you babysit (use to) for someone and get their mail in everyday to get payments for things you have sold to people but didn't ever copy and know their passwords for everything so that you can rip someone off. Pretty neat if you know the real seller is very trustworthy and would never do such a thing, he would also never see the emails from the peoples he ripped off or ever know anything about it. Great cover up, huh???" There's a few interesting ones where they answer themselves about needing quality tapes, etc. Very entertaining! There was also another where one alias actually oudid another in price and qulity - funny stuff! And they even badmouthed themselves once: "This bastar ripped me off too!!! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I paid him/her $200 last year for a set and i never received my tapes!!Kept telling me that my tapes was held up in the customs blablabla....yeah right! What a fool i was..." I love the rules on their website: 1) "If you are a first time trader with me YOU must send first as I have been burned many times. " 3) "Any money exchanged is for cost of tapes, shipping, and my time not for what's on the tape." - now I know that this is worded this way so it doesn't appear they're selling, but to me it just sounds so funny - almost makes it sound like they're just going to send you crap (if they send it at all). Ah, you just gotta love it: "It's me Pam! My computer has been shut down and I just got a new one so I'm learning how to work it and only have half of my things programmed back in so I may be using my hubby's ids and email for a while. Its so frustrating getting it all back together! Hope everyone is doing good. Al I do hope you feel better and I do know what you mean about the CNN news coverage. Its driving me crazy. It would be great if war didn't exist and everyone could just get along, but I would say thats almost impossible. Well, I'm gonna go catch up on some email! Talk to you all later and HUGS to all! " I don't think it's funny that they've ripped people off - that truly sucks, but once you look into it, they're so disorganized that it's comical. And BTW - they've now surfaced selling romance novels so beware..... |

This does not surprise me as I have watched dawsonscreekfan do this type of thing on trading boards. Since I became aware of her shenanigans, I've watched her from afar. She's one of the first to pounce on a bad trader post, which is rather ironic, wouldn't you say?

I'm sure she's going to be coming back with a different ID one of these days, so beware and be sure to do a Reverse White Pages check before sending out anything. I would also go as far as to say that I'd be leery of trading with anyone who lives near Loudon, Tennessee.

where did this coward post this ****?!? ridiculous, she should better go in a psycho clinic, it seems urgent. Ask this moron if she's living in Loudon, TN and if she still claims her name is Paul and she doesn't know who Pamela is....
those psychos have no right to trade anywhere |

I was searching a LOT of trading boards looking for 4 eps of Degrassi TNG that my tape got ruined - they were clip shows run over the summer, and preview for the new season - they may have only been run on Noggin, but they're not re-running them. (I ultimately found someone to trade with)
Anyway, I keep seeing their aliases coming up over and over on just about any kind of trading board you can find. As dawsonscreekfan was advertising the eps I needed, I decided to do a search, and came across all those posts I mentioned above. The one about her computer being down, etc. is from a message board for fans of a romance novelist, and I found on another board they are now selling romance novels. Guess they figure that we all know enough about them to know not to deal with them so they've moved on....... I see their aliases also have global EZ Board identities, so that makes it easy to move from one to another. Just like a certain person who advertised heavily all over many many boards I belong to about wanting to trade, yet never answered the several e-mails I sent. I'm glad, tho, because I saw someone on these boards say that the tapes are poor quality, so I guess it worked out in the end. (and how come sometimes my sig shows and sometimes it doesnt? I'm not unchecking the box or anything) |

Just wanted to say that I got ripped off by her too.
She first told me that her husband forgot to send the tapes so she would send them to me, but then she wouldn't respond to emails.... It's been over 3 months & I haven't seen the tapes nor have I heard from her.Jenna |

A reputable trader on this board who has not yet commented on the subject publicly, contacted me that she'd been recently ripped off by Pam Maples, too.
I think that one of the methods Pam used to acquire the trust of people here was to use an alternative ID, so when Loudonslim (one of her aliases) was being exposed, dawsonscreekfan (another alias) came in and bad mouthed him, leading others to believe that she was a different person, not to mention her vast collection of shows, which gives one the impression that she's been trading for a long time and trustworthy. Here's heads up...If Pam reacts like she has done in the past, she has already acquired a new ID, and possibly already bad mouthed dawsonscreekfan (herself). The trick here is to remember the name of her town: Loudon, Tennessee It would be wise to check a map when trading with anyone in Tennessee; however, with the amount of money that Pam seems to have gotten away with, she has plenty of money for moving expenses and may very well pop up somewhere else.

I just can't believe it, she's obviously "a moderator" on a site!
Her name there is beatyp ("Beaty") but it's definately Pam Maples http://pub95.ezboard.com/fjuliegarwood84426frm68 it seems it's the board someone here once mentioned. A different name, typically hiding, what a crap is that!

I will finally comment on this issue, I traded with Pam for 1 ep of Melrose PLace and I gave her some rare Grady Shows. The trade went perfectly and was quick. I guess I got lucky here. She was actually very easy to deal with and a pleasure, my how times have changed based on these posts, WOW>
