Okay, I see your point. Lets find go find out where he lives and kill him.
Problem solved.
Reductio absurdium
The point here is: Is he a scammer or not? It is NOT "How many times has he been caught?" Incidentally, I have one of the PM's where he tried to scam me personally. It and the postings in this forum are enough to prove the second failed scam, but I believe that what is in this thread should be sufficient to expose his character.
On May 3rd he joined this forum. By May 7th he had a website set up to rip people off. On that same day he posted in this forum a "review" designed to get people to visit and then buy from his website. Once he was caught he just dropped the thread and pulled down the website. Those actions show malice, forethought, and lying in wait. He intentionally tried to steal from you.
In my field, (human communication) we deal with a theory called "apologia". In it we study what someone has to do to recover their reputation after they are caught in a screw up. Those things, in order, are; 1) admission 2) contrition 3) remorse 4) restitution (if needed) 5) assurance of no repetition .
IMHO (obviously) he should be booted just based on these actions. However, at a minimum, the members of this forum deserve to be warned about him. He has not changed. He got caught and slunk off in silence. He continues to walk these halls looking for another opportunity to try it again.
Do NOT give this man any money
[highlight]**EDIT** Well that was sexist of me, wasn't it? Do not give this person any money[/highlight]. Although I do believe that antaean3000 showed me his/her *ss. He/she did NOT show me any genitalia.
Peace,
