Received this this morning:

----------------------------------------------------------

Well, it's that time you knew was coming, we caught you. I'm the guy in charge of watching vendors to prevent them finding customers on our site, and then completing the transaction(s) outside our site to avoid paying our commission. Sadly, that's exactly what you've been doing.

Obviously it is against our rules to sell your product to customers you find here outside of our system to avoid our fees. It costs a lot to run and maintain this site, and you are fucking us buy cheating us out of our small percentage.

I've been working about 70 hours a week for the past year to keep this site operating, so when I see someone cheating us, I get upset.

But, today may be your lucky day. I don't get paid much for my work, and I'm in some financial trouble, so if it's worth it to you, I'll make you a deal.

You send me 500 Bitcoins in the next 72 hours, and I don't contact Dread right now and have you banned from this site. I have all the evidence saved, don't bother deleting your PMs etc. If I do this, not only will you lose your seller account tonight, but all of us will watch to make sure you and your crew never get another seller account here again.

That's it.

I will never check the account I'm sending this message from again, so don't bother trying to threaten, negotiate, or whatever. If it's worth 500 Bitcoins for you to keep using our market, then you'll pay. If not, go back to the streets.

If I see 250 bitcoins sent within 72 hours, I will give you another 10 days to get the other 250 BTC sent to me.

I'm the guy who monitors vendors, so if I get the coins, I will watch your account and make sure you don't get heat for off-site sales. I'll give you an email, and you can contact me with any problems you need handled by an admin. I'll also punch your listings to a lot of people's front pages.

One year from now, we will talk about another fee for me.

If the coins don't arrive at that address within 72 hours, you will be banned from this site and you guys will never be allowed to sell here or on our new sites again.

Here is the address to pay the 500 BTC: 1CcjVfMN1PanTVBszDe1CuJ6bn9rQkiVpc


Sorry for being a prick, but you owe us, so I really don't feel bad. This will be good for both of us.

lol, what a joke - self-made-mafia for or from the poor ones... ;D
I really laughed a lot when I just read this.
It´s up to you, of course, if  you take this serious, or maybe even start a counter-attack ;-)...

And the rest of the conversation went like this:

SmoothriderX(98)    You are a scamming fuckwad, we've never done a deal OOE, so your threats are even more laughable. Like I said.. get fucked.    1 minute    unread

229505060092927    yes, I'm still logged in to this account. How am I the scammer here? I work hard to keep this site running. You are ripping us off by not paying fees. Like I said, if the BTC aren't there in 72 hours, you are banned for life. Funny that you think you can steal from us and get away with it.    8 minutes    read

Something tells me this might be vlad1m1r/Nate's latest scam, as he just completed his most recent one the other day:

this guy is 100% legit, I made sure I paid him before my service was compromised. I may not be a perfect citizen, but I will always follow the SR rules from now on. You all should listen to this before you lose everything you have worked for!! ... :o
