I understand that I was wrong not to use escrow, but if everyone knows it's a scammer why not banned it and do not close its posts Huh
Everyone knows, but nobody does anything, I think this is wrong
His posts are all open and he is not banned. for beginners it may not be easy to see your reputation right away

Thanks.


You may be a newbie but your account is 4 years old and you have a nice green trust rating there. Why did you allow him to talk you into paying first? This is why scammers continue to operate with impunity. For one, they know they can open accounts every 2 days and misuse it without fear of being sanctioned. Sanctioning them (tagging them) has little to no deterrent effect because they can open countless accounts here and use them to steal brazenly.

And the conversation flow on those chat screen shots... there is such an arrogance and control in the way he leads the conversation. I would have called him out and stomped on his boundless ego. Why did you allow him to talk to you that way? Pay for $250... minutes later, no $250 so pay more. Sorry, no refunds (even though I told you I do have $250).

Escrow always. If these scammers say no, decline to proceed and report them. Waste their time.

I do not agree with you. In this forum there is a marketplace section ... and can not be considered equal to all the other forum sections.
this is my opinion.

Well, that's your opinion and I accept it. You know mine.

Maybe you can make voting thread about this issue. If you get a huge support you might achieve rule changes (but I doubt about).

banning user and closing false posts is not a police but is the real role of the administrators.

I disagree. Moderator's job is to make sure people are following "local rules". You cant put into forum rules no scamming (it's already within "the general public rules" ).  

I fully agree with rule nr. 19

19. Possible (or real) scams and Trust ratings are not moderated (to prevent moderation abuse).

Forum moderators are not police. And do you realize how much work it would cost to hunt them all down? What would stop them from creating another account? 

I believe when people apply comon sense they are safe of such things. Just use your brains guys..

True, this user is red tagged by many members. Why did you went to deal with him?
Guess you have learned a lesson. Others should take you as exemplary case.
Anyway thanks for the warning.

How is this possible he is been tagged for a month now so what made you trade with him. There are situations where people don't uae escrow , get's scammed and finally some dt member tag them. In this situation you did use any escrow and even traded with a person who has already been proven to be a scammer.
