scammers

[zaq123]

Is there a way to report scammers on this board? I got a PM in regards to my classified ad from Lucruise. Looks like he/she joined the forum yesterday

  Apologies if this is an intrusion"

seriously?

Yeah, just paypal me $20.00 at sirscamalot@hotmail.com and I'll report 'em for you. You need to cover the fees of course.

But seriously, I don't see a way in user profiles or in the PM pop up/inbox, so I'd just PM a mod.

I've reported a scammer on here along with two others that reported the same person and the mods have done nothing.. he's still active.

Mods are volunteers, not employees, cut them some slack, and like everything, take personal responsibility, especially for dispensing your money to some random person.

Remember, you don't see the hundreds of accounts that get suspended almost immediately.

There's a sticky with this discussion and exposing the offending members:

Seems fishy gave me the average WTB email blast.
