User legendster claims to be an exotic car broker representing an unnamed friend in the USA.
1. legendster makes a claim of having recently sold a car for $36,000 in an "offline sale" (the car is a 911 Porsche turbo with California (US) plates -- user lives in India).
2. legendster offers us a series of photos of exotic cars he is currently offering in this post: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2107280
3. legendster posted a photo of an Aston Martin with visible licence plate here:https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/560832_523780937656648_1588410876_n.jpg, making the match to images here: http://teamspeed.com/forums/automobiles/70436-2006-aston-martin-db9-volante-black-black-scottsdale-az.html irrefutable. The match proves photos presented by legendster are harvested from the web, having no other connection to legendster.
While the scam is absurdly juvenile and obvious on its face, and the odds of legendster successfully scamming anyone are laughable, mere presence of such low-grade cons on the Marketing/goods forum casts a shadow on the legitamacy of Bitcointalk.org as a reasonable place to conduct commerce. User legendster has been accused of scamming by several users within just the thread i've linked to above. User legendster is a Hero Member. Though "Hero Member" does not actually denote trustworthiness, the wording unquestionably implies it to new users. It's time to give legendster a scammer tag.
MODS: Even if you think it's a 13yr-old boy, and i'd say that's more likely than not, don't let these forums become a known hangout where 13yr-old boys can hone their scamming skilz. Without fearing anything, not even a scammer tag, when they're caught.

1. AGENT for a broker in California, I collect contacts & forward it to him, so if I disclose the name the would be 'contacts' would directly contact him instead of me
2. I DID NOT SELL THAT CAR. My friend BROKERED IT FOR HIS CLIENT !
3. Go back to the post & see the source of the Pic.
4. There should probably be a "Troll Accusation Board" so I can post your and some other member's names there.
