It seems mod Hilariousandco finally banned the YouTubeTV account. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/deleted-5124209 (but not for scamming Cheesy

)

Hilariousandco is pretty cool, he helped me about a year ago delete multiple scamming threads started by one of YouTubeTV's aliases.

Now why the hell would you leave these topics open?

Listen, obviously i'm a noob here - but you need to understand a couple things, i'll own up to it being my fault but here's how I just fell for the first scam ever in my life.

- The missing 'reply' button doesn't stand out until you go to reply.

- The trust system isn't part of any other forum i've been a member of, so I don't even know to look for that.

So what you're basically doing is leaving up topics that have replies with good (fake) feedback on them - a noob like me sees that, and that it's been up for days.

Why would you not at least edit out the links from the OP? Huh

This is the STRANGEST moderation of scammers i've ever seen, leaving the links to purchase from them live on your forum under any circumstances. I'm at a loss on who thought there was any need to preserve this info.

Thankfully only out $50 but still - shocked.

Oh man these “not a scam” rants are hilarious to read now.

People tried warning you, but look how you behaved.

You all deserved it.

Pretty ironic that you laugh at others who have been scammed and tell them they deserve it, then get scammed yourself. Grin

It's not the "strangest" it is non-existent. Sadly, the owners of this forum do not moderate scams so the folks in this thread try to help.

No one here can do anything. Since you didn't post where or who scammed you which is strange, if indeed it happened to you we can't say to you "did you read his TRUST"? You have been registered for 6 months so the scammers trust should be right there in red under their name unless he too is new. Sorry you lost $50.

So, just lost $50 on this https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/need-starbucks-egift-1807733

My question is why do you guys even let this post stay here in forum.

The forum Moderators can't tell you who to trust and who not to trust, but the members here try to warn about scammers , you need to look at the user trust page, most of the time scammers have at least 1 negative tag. but a general rule on this forum is to always assume that whoever has a locked/self-moderated topic is scam by default, there are however a few legit sellers who make self-moderated topics to avoid spam, but that will be 1 in 100 at best case scenario.

Did you check the trust before buying? Your account is not new and it is easy to note the red Warning on his account.
Did you read the sticky thread in this section? This topic warns you of these deals.

Sorry for your loss but the forum tries to prevent these abuses, and since Possible (or real) scams and Trust ratings are not moderated (to prevent moderation abuse), prevention is better than cure.

More solutions may need to be added, such as preventing members of red trust or small ranks from posting Auto-Buy
links.

The topic or board you are looking for appears to be either missing or off limits to you.

So I'm looking to buy giftcards, and I stumbled upon this thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/deleted-expired-1674707
I was close to buying from him through discord, but decided to register on the forum to learn more.
He's got a -200 trust score and his reviewers also have negative trusts. Ain't this a red flag? Can a mod please confirm if he's a scam or not? This will save other newbies like myself.

Kind Regards

I would not buy from him with his neg score, the mods don't care if he is a scammer, they won't do anything about it, scammers are tolerated here, that's why there are so many.

I wanna move my topic to new place. However, I did not know that forum has moving topic feature for topic owner.
Then I locked it and created new topic at new board. Unfortunately, someone else marked me as un-trusted (negative infractions) because of using AutoBuy link + Lock topic.

How can I do?

Stop using auto-buy links. You're not trusted enough to do that. Instead sell directly here asking a trusted member of this forum to act as escrow.
Edit all your posts with that change and then PM the user who tagged you. Almost certainly he will remove it.
