He was obviously just gathering money from members for a group buy on LE-37's to get everyone a good price. He was thinking about the masses.

Then Pm me who is he.

What I know right now is....
-He is in Army.
-He has skinny as$ body.
-His address.

It's impossible that he got hacked for that long and he didn't realize.
BS

He has made multiple smooth transactions via the forums, and was a VERY good customer of Forged. When I was at Forged, I dealt with him all the time. Very stand up guy, contrary to popular belief.

Not true. Similar stuff happened to me, RIGHT UNDER MY NOSE, and I didn't see it. A girl I worked with stole my identity, and started purchasing things and applying for loans and auto financing in my name. It was happening for almost 2 months before I even got word of it. I ran out of money in my bank account (never checked to see that it was slowly dwindling away) and started getting letters from banks and car dealerships, about loans and such that I never applied for, and cars I never even looked at.

He was a nice kid when i dealt with him... I got my product and everyhting.. .the mistake he made in our transaction could have been an honest mistake. And with all this happening it is probably why he hasnt gotten back to me about refunding some of the money.

Im not saying he is innocent by anymeans but its an interesting story..

I'm sure he was a great customer of Forged because he was apparently running himself deeper into debt even then . I think it's admirable that you want to give him the benefit of the doubt but at this point the evidence against him is pretty compelling. He may have seemed like a stand up guy through your limited interactions but how well do you really know him?

Having someone steal your identity to establish lines of credit and purchase items without your knowledge is very different than selling a bunch of fake items, having the money sent to your paypal, your bank account, and doing this using your cell phone.

Let's face it people, post count and even favorable Itrader trader ratings only give us a small idea of what a person is like and holds no guarantees. How well do we really know each other over the internet or through brief business transactions?


The news is littered with people commiting all sorts of crimes followed with surprised accounts of people who knew them in their daily life saying that they would have never thought they were capable of such things. With the economy the way it is, and money being tight everywhere, people get desperate and desperate people do things they don't normally do. Investment consultants jumping out of planes to fake their own deaths anyone? It's a crazy time indeed.
