I agree. The chance might be high that he is in a financial predicament.
I was lucky. I could push him with the threat of opening a scam accusation thread. I gave him a enddate when i will do it. That worked, even though he let make it one of his "partners". You see how that looks.
Anyway... now, since this thread is in existance, and maidaks name was tarnished, he might think he doesnt have much to loose anymore, so the pressure on him is lower than when i pressured him.
That's not an excuse. Even when banks go bankrupt, they need to refund the money to their account holders. He is scamming others too quoting his personal problems. If he does have any financial problems, he shouldn't do trades with such a high value. It's wrong to keep a person waiting for his money for so long. It's also a concern that after he owed $5000 to another user that he wasn't able to pay, he still kept trading with other users. What does that mean?
You mean when banks go bankrupt, account holders lose the money and taxpayer bails them out right? Don't be naive, welcome to the real world.
