|

eqphr33k is a scammer...do not buy anything from this person, and I need to know if someone out there will do a little...research...and find out who this is.
They just ripped me off, thankfully not for much since I'm not stupid enough to hand over a whole lot of PP, but I'd be very interested to see if this is someone we know here.
Any takers on finding out this scammers true identity?

The char they logged into game was Niaz, I am quite sure it was someone's scammer bot..
They wanted the whole bag but only gave them a few k. Few things about them tipped me off ahead of time, but nothing glaringly obvious...figured was worth the risk for 4 game cards. First time in 4 years I've been burned, had to happen sometime, though usually guard against it anyways.
Oh well, just really wouldnt mind knowing who this is if anyone has the skills to do that...and warn against anyone else trusting this person. If you were inclined to...Dont ;p

Game Cards seem to be a new way to scam people easily. If someone wants to sell you game cards in the future you should try to get the numbers first. If they say they have been burned like that before ask if they will use me as a middle man. I can confirm the prepaid numbers and confirm the items/plat/$$ before either party gets the pp/card. Once both parties are happy I can deliver to both. There will be a small fee (depending on time involved) but it will be small if everything is in place and it does not take long

Griecko, Flaten and some other names this guy goes by. Tesa is a 54 druid is a scammer too. Never ever ever get anything from anyone under at least lvl 50, it's probably a scam.
P4P for president

He semi scammed me. I traded him my 52 pally account I have posted on the Accounts for Sale board, for what he claimed to be a 55 necro and a 54 beastlord. Neither of them were on it, but I recieved the account that has 6 months paid for and all expansions installed.
He is a lier though. Inturn a scammer.
