Accounts Connected:

ONCF, cordaz, CoinIEtrader, Frente1903, Mung1952, Lumsecut75, anahamoo55, Hispossiond1970,

Proof:

As noticed by both Vod and KWH, these accounts were all created in a three day period with zero activity, yet they have all vouched on ONCF 's u=924920 trust wall

Related Addresses:

Miscellaneous: It's likely two other vouches on ONCF's trust wall are also sock puppets:

AgnO5, malkbtc, due to thier last active dates:

but can't be discounted both the use of comma and

While the spelling is not the best, there's a clear finger print in the shared use of the comma where there is a gap both before and after the words:

Most of the positive feedback is from accounts with ZERO posts and created/last login the same day. 
Looks (obviously) fake to me as well.

Lesson: Always check and confirm escrow instructions with the escrow provider directly. Never rely on copy/paste and quoted instructions provided by anyone you transact with. This generally applies to all escrow trades, not just to this particular scam accusation and I hope users here will learn from these scam attempts (luckily it didn't go beyond a mere attempt).

And that's good due diligence work there. Checking the trust and trade history and making an intelligent decision about it. Sensing something amiss or fake was a good move there.

The scammer must be unhappy to see things aren't working out in his favour. No coins and now a ruined trust rating. Not a profitable weekend for him.

Additional Notes: Looking at this guy trust score I don't know how he'd managed to make that many positive exchanges lately

Most of the positive feedback is from accounts with ZERO posts and created/last login the same day.  I hate to give future scammers info on how to scam better, but that definitely looks suspicious.

I have pointed him to this thread - let's read what he has to say.

Look at the References. They don't seem to lead to or prove anything. Perhaps these 100+ BTC risked Trust shills should get some red as well.
