Topic: How can a hero account only have 99 posts? - page 3. (Read 3927 times)

Is it possible for the staff or even the admin to alter his personal message/signature to something that warns users that he is not an actual Hero member and is a potential scammer? Even though Quickseller is certain, do we have enough incriminating evidence to say that TheGambler is a scam account?
He has negative trust. He had such negative trust even when he was a "hero" account. IMO his accounts should be given scammer tags so he can no longer edit/delete his previous posts as he took so much time to do.

There is proof that he is a scammer in this post/thread as he actually admitted to stealing and being a part of a ponzi (which happens to be the post with his dox)

I have read and evaluated the thread's information and the replies. I must commend you for the effort of compiling all that information - all the separate pieces of the puzzle fit together. Since you have more evidence against him and he is not willing to provide explanations as to how he got this information, I am inclined to believe you over him, but I wouldn't pass a definite verdict just yet. I agree that his account and his confirmed alts should be given scammer tags in the interest if the forum's community. I think theymos needs to take a look at this, and the authorities could get involved if he really did scam 100BTC off the forums.

His threads probably shouldn't be in the trashcan. He edited most of the OPs in threads he created to make it misleading as to what was being discussed (and he moved them to incorrect sections).

I don't see the point. He is taking a lot of pains for nothing.
He is trying to cover his tracks. It shows malice. In theory his posts won't be undeleted if there is not evidence of scams. He went as far as to edit the OPs of threads he creates to random questions and moved threads in order to hide what he was posting about.
I will most likely be posting his dox later today (I have it at home).

You should probably clear this with Theymos. Reason
I don't have his SSN (or equivalent) nor any similar sensitive information. All information that I have is name, address, phone number, Facebook pictures, Facebook accounts, names of likely family members, family's facebook accounts, and Twitter. All information is available publicly on the Internet.

But anyways isnt he already declared a scammer? Like i see he has a lot of red trust so no one needs to prove him scammer or anything right? Or am i not understanding the problem correctly
He has stolen massive amounts of money over at least 3 years. The hope is that people sue him and/or press criminal charges.

I think it will be updated within an hour. How long did you observed this? The status will automatically changed based on the activity level.
It has ~400 posts late last night and was still showing as a hero (should have been senior then). I noticed it had 99 posts maybe 30 minutes prior to me making this thread. It should have received a demotion several hours ago.

Why would he even take the time to delete 400 posts like what the fuck, admin can recover all the posts anyways so i dont really get it, anyways his account is done so it doesnt really matter if he is hero or not.
He has scammed several times over several accounts. Each scam was very large and he stole at least 20 BTC, although this is only amounts I can easily and quickly verify, I would guesstimate the actual amount he stole is closer to 100 btc. I recently was able to find his identity because I found blockchain evidence with an account that could be linked to his RL identity. I had waited to post it because I wanted to give the person behind the account I linked to him to have time to dispute the connection. However the fact that he has taken so much time to try to cover his tracks I am confident they are the same person and that I have the right person.

I will most likely be posting his dox later today (I have it at home).

You are right that admins can recover deleted posts but that doesn't matter because relevant threads connecting him to other accounts and scams have been archived.

It's probably an SMF bug. I remember his threads were moved to Trashcan/Archival board some time ago. I can see 109 messages from him now.
Sometimes when we nuke accounts their post count still show 1 or 2.

It looks like TheGambler is showing as being a hero account, however it only has 99 posts.

It previously had well over 500 activity and over 700 posts, however they were recently deleted (to cover his tracks).

My question is why was his rank not updated when his activity fell below 480?
