    Scammer Alert!!! Scammer Alert!!!

    I just received a PM from a customer of mine about a user on PBN and here on AO that's using my feedback links to scam people into purchasing items from him.

    His AO name is emaguser777
    MSN is [email protected]
    AIM is undetermined but believed to be tobyjuhl240

    This guy is currently selling an emag which can be found here:


    He's also selling a few items that the same customer of mine told me about that he doesn't know a thing about, such as a vintage Centerflag "Crossfire" tank that's currently hydroed through 2009. Hrmmm, from what I know, Centerflag never made Crossfire tanks, maybe i'm wrong. Second, even if they did make that tank, and it was an old tank, it'd only be a 3 year tank, meaning there's NO POSSIBLE WAY it could be good through 2009. That has scam written all over it.

    Please be careful if you are looking at dealing with this fellow. I am trying to get ahold of him as we speak to see what he says.

    Thanks for taking the time to read

          Manike-It's still early days. One thing for sure is that the future is going to be interesting, and we intend to be a BIG part of it.

            I don't think he will be doing any trading on this board Frag ; )

            Glad we got him.

              Cheers to p8ntbalr2004! He's the one that nabbed this guy and figured him out before someone was caught in an unfortunate situation.

              Thanks man, I'm sure this thread will save someone some heartache of a missing $1000 bill

                  ....I don't get it.... he is linking to YOUR feedback? and how does that actually assist him? He is claiming to be you? Or your assuming people will click the feedback link and not notice its about someone else?

                  Not certain if its deliberate, stupidity, or .... both.

                    cphil,

                    Yeah, he's giving people a link to my feedback thread when they ask to see his feedback. I'm not sure if he's trying to play it off as his like it's another name he's registered under or exactly how he's trying to play it off. But he's definately trying to use my feedback.

                      I can post a litle more information.

                      We were discussing a trade, and I said I would not be shipping first unless he could provide more feedback than I have, which is something like 45ish. He said he didnt have quite that much, but he had some. I said to get me a link for his feedback.

                      Low and behold, he sent me Fragteks feedback. I confornted him right away saying how he was not Fragtek etc, and he said he was!! Finally, he agreed with me that he was not fragtek, but sent me a link to some ebay feedback. Who knows if that was actually his or not? But he is definately not frag.

                      Maybe that can clear some of this up.

                          cphil, his user name is emaguser777. I know he has atleast an emag for sale, didn't bother to look for anything else.
