I noticed a common thread among the bad traders. Where good traders use the same email address in their dealings, the scammers, crooks and dishonest folks keep changing their names to outwit unsuspecting folks.
Pamely Beatty. Marcie Bower and Sheri Lerman have changed their names numerous times as posted in the bad traders section, in fact a minimum of six but while the first two have seemed to quietly left the scene, the third is still up to old tricks, coming up with new names at every turn and still begging Savage to remove her name from the bad traders list.

Whenever I look through the older, stable, consistant trades- even sellers
The main point is they want to begin a reputation. And that requires a name, everyone knows. Back in the day, wayyyy back for example my CB handle, when that was popular was SavageAmusement. My AOL screenname when AOL 3.0 came out was SavageAmusement My nickname for Varsity sports was Savage. I am known as Savage. Period. It's mine. And its part of me- There are various people whom change their screen name from time to time for legit reasons don't get me wrong. But anything more than 1-2 changes, and my eyes get raised. If you go to Ebay and see a user has the icon of shades next to it, it means they recently changed their name. And they make a point of showing you this, for that very reason Changing a name can, and usually is trouble. People often times say living online is a world of it's own- well it is. You are dealing with words Not faces With text, not voices. And there is no body language, there is no sense of reassurance- All you get, is the name, and what they type/what they say. That is it- so be careful with it- because trust is hard to build in general but online, even more so. It is too easy to get a new email Get a new screenname and just "start over" For too many bad people for me as a moderator, or person to just shrug off the obvious. The fact that I type in multiple, and I do mean multiple AKA names for various users stuns me. And to me signifies full support of the suspicions And when I see multiple names such as Rags To Riches fan- it makes me feel not only did they not feel bad for their past mistakes, but more so- they were premeditated. |
