Since some138 has not responded to these allegations, and he's been online since this topic was created I can only assume he has no defense. In order to better warn new users of the potential of being scammed by some138 I have created a scammer flag. Please review, and support or oppose as you see fit.

Topic: SCAM Accusations: Some138 (Read 299 times)
I can confirm that some138 has turned into a scammer. he was asking me to send payment yesterday over telegram which I refused because I felt skeptical.
It would be good if you included even the screenshots of the PM/chat logs so that people can know how he tries to pull off his scam tricks and stay off

and I'm 100% sure he's not hacked or phished. he's doing this on his own. maybe, because he's a ses seller and SES accounts are getting hard to approve but easy to prey on.

Definitely a scammer. I checked their thread and seems like from the vouches only 2 actual quotes link to the messages and rest are just there. Also, one of the quoted posts links to the profile of another AWS seller which seels SES/EC2 services just like the mentioned scammer. They could be connected but I'm looking more into the connections. Good Find.
What happened::
I noticed three newbies complaining that some138 has not delivered on paid orders, and is not responding to the claims by these newbies that they have been scammed.

Additional Notes:
Some138 has been online today, and has yet to respond to these allegations.
This could be someone using fake newbie accounts to attempt to tarnish Some138's reputation, but looks more like Some138 is taking advantage of newbies status and preying on those who not likely to get heard when they accuse an established member of a scam. There are also older claims that some138 has scammed them, he could be scamming users selectively.
I'd like to see those who are claiming to have been scammed respond here with signed messages and TxIds.

This user is a scammer. Paid 110$. Promised to deliver an amazon SES account within 72 hours. After that time went silent while seeing that i wrote him. Beware. Have chat history on telegram.
