Title: RandomGuy1970 on SL
Post by: 11226634H on February 19, 2012, 07:21 am
This guy is scamming people out of MP cards. Replies fast to get the MP card via message and then never responds again. He is also doing "lottos" that are also most likely scams. He is responsive to messages until he gets your MP # and takes the money out. BEWARE!!

God this makes me so fucking mad... I spotted him fake boosting his feedback with the "lotto" bullshit a long time ago.... I brought it up in several threads and messaged SR

THIS IS WHY LOTTOS / DIGITAL GOODS should not affect feedback.

I keep a little list of all vendors doing the lottery thing and and make sure I NEVER buy from them regardless of how long they have been here.

I agree that a lottery basically just seems like a way to cheat the system.

Scamming people on another site and now after pumping up his feedback with phoney lottery listings he is listing QP's and HP's for sale on SR. Probably looking for a few big scores before he bolts.   >:(

While I respect your caution, I just feel that I should vouch for and say that Anarcho47 recently ran a lottery and he is one of the most legit vendors on this site and I completely trust him (or as completely trust as one can in this business)

He has great deals on qps and hps of weed. Early finalize only lol.  Stay clear of this guy. 

It bothers me that his name is slightly similar to mine and he "sells" sour diesel and I sell Chemdog Sour Diesel.

Posted in other thread: http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=12087.0

Looks like he got me for a $60 moneypak, unfortunately Sugar Momma only deals with $100+ dollar MPs and BTC Buddy has a recent btc drought.  Fuck me... looks like this will be the first time I've been straight scammed (have had an order or two not arrive but was protected by escrow).  The slew of positive 'lotto' feedback made him look reputable, although I still should have known to stay away.

Update:  I would just like to say that after checking, my balance was still on the moneypak, and I have been able to move it to another form.

So I can't say this guy scammed me because I was able to recover my money.  I don't know what happened with everyone else exactly, from what I've read there are a lot of people saying he drained their moneypaks and never responded.  SR has apparently banned his account, which seems to be the prudent thing to do.  I think with the case of exchanging moneypaks, since there is no escrow protection, being aggressive in handling fraud here is a must.  Hopefully the community can come up with a better way of obtaining bitcoins that puts all of us at less risk.

Glad to hear he did not get you too, also big thumbs up to SR for banning this ScumBum.
