What happened:: The usual scam: I saw his thread on selling a potential Member account for 0.004BTC and I decided to buy. He PMed me saying the overall procedure and told me to deposit in his address. He also told me the account name: mehclasses. After the confirmation, he did not reply anymore.

It's worth 0.004BTC/ea, just hit me back a reply if you're interested.
Yep. I'll get one but may I know the username?

mehclasses
Bitcoin address? After I send the payment, please give me the account credentials.

Ok then, can we make our deal fast and smooth.

Send your payment to this adddres: 164jZeV4p4hMc6pwAAZERFUFMtcrHXq8yD

Once I confirmed it, then I'll send you the information of the account. Free from hassle.

Additional Notes: (above proof is sufficient enough)

Although, the worst part is he scammed one of his countrymen. At any rate, can the staff maintain control over the account he was selling me? Thanks! :-P
