I’m not accusing every new member. I’m only accusing the new member in this particular hardware forum who posts in that particular pattern.

I think all newbie members listing in the hardware forum should be required to have at least 1 other post on BCT before they are allowed to post items for sale here.

This person has offered gear time and time again. Never responds always routes you to an email.

He may be simply looking to get valid emails. Then attack the passwords to the email hoping to steal that way.

I always advise to not go to email on a newbie as the danger can be simply email theft.

on the board right now on the first page I see 6 bad threads maybe more.

I suspect the following threads:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/wts-pangolin-m10-miners-33ths-2145-watts-5177432

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/antminer-l3-x5-a3-5175442

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.52080651

the six listed all look shady and I would not do a deal with out escrow.

I would give a toss away email as all of the above may want to steal your email just as much as steal your btc/crypto.

He’s not a competitor. He’s a scammer. I’ve noticed a pattern with posts from newbies (that have only 1 post) that contain gmail accounts (that start with letters and end in numbers) that also link out to telegram or WhatsApp. They always end up being scams.

Scammers are going to have to start using a different email provider or at least warm up there BTC account with random posts in other threads if they are going to get better at scamming.

Exactly. Not to mention the time tested forum approach of providing pictures of the gear with a current date sign, with user name in the photo. Also the price of the unit and willingness to use trusted forum escrow. Unfortunately these days more listings in here than not, are scam attempts. Granted they are thinly veiled and weak, but they must be working on some unsuspecting people or these scammers wouldn't keep doing it. I applaud you pointing it out. Not really worried about hurt feelings. This forum is, was and always will be, a better option for buying and selling gear than Ebay or dirct with no protection. Scammers notwithstanding...

Me and the whole community will be more than happy to expose the scammers don't get me wrong.
But instead of calling every new member a scammer, we can just simply request things like escrow, proofs of ownership and if they are scammers, none of them will come back to the forum, because none of them will provide proof of ownership or accept escrow.
I know it may be little bit more writing but it is way more tolerate and in the same way filtering the scammers from the new members who actually trying to make their way to the community.

maybe you missed Phil's response - that same email address has been used for numerous posts here - always with different forum accounts and no one has ever been able to actually buy a miner from them - at least no one has posted that they have gotten one from them.

This is probably a scam I

Could you explain why? Did he attempted to scam or just random attack against the competition?
I know many newbies coming here to scam but if we call all of them scammers, then people will stop using the forum.
I don't know the OP and I do not care about his sales but attacking randomly newcomers without statements or proofs will affect as counter attack to your name...

*Quick Edit: OP, could you provide pictures of your units with hand written your forum name including the date ? If that's not possible, at least are you willing to use high trusted escrow for your sales? Cheers.

that email has been used multiple times in an attempt to sell here.

@ op

If you are real I would buy one but not via your email.

I accept pm's send one to me.
