a lot of other forums i get onto have a section like this
its to protect member from dodgy sellers or to help them get the stuff they paid for, its usually a no holds barred lynch mob type thread that in most cases exposes the offender in ways they dont want eg phone numbers addresses social website accounts and anything you can find on the scum
and some time the parts or money get sorted out of
As i understand a few members have been ripped off here (shuggy for one) and not one thing has been done about it

Only buy from people who you know and trust.
I did have a bad experience with another member on here, I won't name the person for 2 reasons.

Re: The rip off scamer thread
there's other ways to do go about it for if you name and shame on a public forum you can be held legally liable for your actions.
just something for you to ponder. Let the people sought them selves out there all big kids.

actually thats a load of crap and its not something to ponder
theres a web site that lists forum scammers and all their details and its perfectly legal its been done sooo many times and most forums have a section for it and some have a feedback rating system (like ebay)
do you really think a scammer is going to try and sue you after you expose them for ripping you off, appart from wayne besanko

Well you obviously went about your research before replying and yes people have been sued over these thing and especially on ebay for example: http://news.cnet.com/8301-17852_3-10074157-71.html
So before pleading ignorance please advise yourself that jumping down peoples throats that you don't know isn't a good thing and discontinue from this avenue of proceedings because this forum is for information not arguments

Yes like that is totally the same as someone stealing your money and never intending to send you the goodsPROSSER wrote:Well you obviously went about your research before replying and yes people have been sued over these thing and especially on ebay for example: http://news.cnet.com/8301-17852_3-10074157-71.html

the seller got bagged out after he refunded the money for a damaged item, he done the right thing and got bad feed back for it
and yes this forum is for information and information about scamming scum would be very beneficial to this community
you excel at failure good work

Re: The rip off scamer thread
I was actualy thinking of creating a thread myself, as there are some known scammers on the site now.
some which have ripped over 1000's of dollers, will implement something soon.
