I am going to test this thread out, and see how it goes.

I am creating this thread so that buyers and/or providers can report Scammers or potential Scammers.

Signs of Potential Scammers.

1. The offer sounds to good to be true (about 99% of time it is).

2. You pay the provider and they start making excuses why your work is not getting done, and multiple other people start having same issue. (there are legit problems this is just a possible sign)

3. You pay the provider and they start not responding to p.m's over a few days, but you can see they are logging into the the forum.

4. Sometime potential scammers will not give reviews, or will not offer to take funds after the work is completed (red fucking flag).

Here are 2 recent examples of guys that went scammer after seeming legit for a while, for examples.

This is just a start to this thread, please add your thoughts or your possible signs of scammers.

I will be editing this original post as it progresses, it is for CONSTRUCTIVE purpose only and it will be edited or deleted if it gets out of hand.

I will also delete or edit your post if deemed necessary.

Also DO NOT post a person just to try to hurt there reputation, if you have no proof or something to back up what your posting you could possibly be banned.
 


Another great thread by zingo! Thanks for this.

mrsingh, also known as jamesvick (caught by zingo) scammed me. He also scammed tomlei and some other members. I know his real name and email too.
 
Stickying across all the B/S/T subforums might be a good idea, if that's possible. Pretty sure the scammers aren't strictly adhering to link sales. Good one, Zingo.
