Because he kept claiming he didnt do it and kept making new things keeping his background hidden.

Tradefortress and I had problems but I am glad I left his coinlenders site when I did.

Personally i would neve recommend anyone to use a website whose insurence that if hacked they will pay everyone back is I have the coins to pay everyone back if needed.

Wow... this thread is OLD...
I didn't know TF was already known as a scammer before the inputs.io hack. Why did people keep trusting him after he did such big scams??

100% scammer.

100%  liar. He lied about security, he lied about investments.

He should not have been trusted with 6000+ bitcoins.

Every time his reputation shows a warning, someone else mysteriously rates him and he is back in the green.

Tradefortress is a hacker, scammer, extortionist who banned me from coinchat 100k times for speaking out against his regime. He also sells stolen cars, he sells drugs to kids and is a pirateat40 alt.

He's an all-round bad guy and should get a pre-emptive scammer tag and permaban.
You were banned for spreading phishing links on coinchat.

QQ more.

Wow looks like op is the scammer and not TradeFortress.

Maybe you wouldnt call TF a scammer (I would), but I can understand why you wouldn't want to uses that terminology. How about unrepeatable? shitty business owner? incompetent programmer? what do you call someone who takes the money for a job then half asses it and gives no kind of compensation when the customer is unhappy? I think it starts with an n and ends with a er. 

Sorry to post on such an old thread with something unrelated.... but im going to try the above highlighted if I ever happen to dissatisfied with a "solicitor" Wink haha

I had hired tradefortress to do some programming for me and I had given him a 15btc deposit.  He hasn't responded to any of my messages for a week.  How do I have a scammer tag applied.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1338992.

you might want to write that off as a loss, TF is most definitely not the type to repay anything over 10 BTC.

1. The OP has a scammer tag and is probably banned
2. Stop bloody bumping this, every time you bump spam I lose more respect for you (note: I never did respect you, though)
If you're that annoyed, just ignore him and GTFO.

is this the same tradefortress that is admin ?

admin of coinchat and some other questionable sites, yeah:
This is the scammer we're talking about, if you're trusting him with less than 10 BTC or so, you might be safe:

@DiamondCardz:

Let's not contribute to the confusion.
Scammer tags on this forum have nothing to do with IRL law. 
They have everything to do with the rules of this forum, which are made by theymos.  It is his sandbox, it's a fun & useful sandbox, and those who play in it obey his rules or GTFO. 
Expressions like "legally binding" are as appropriate here as in the boardgame Monopoly.

Update: Scammer TF not honoring his IOU's created through Ripple:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/4-btc-debt-of-tradefortress-ripple-ious-207054

Even theymos doesn't honor IOU's in Ripple. Does that make the head admin a scammer?

His title doesn't matter, he can be the head of state and still be a scammer. I'm pretty sure that not honoring IOU is a scam but I guess TF did say that it was all part of a massive experiment plus there is no way of telling if TF was the one who took all of that BTC.

Ripple IOU's are not legally binding.
