DDF Wall of References

[chucksterace]

I put a in. That should make it understood that I'm joking, no?

A smiley means crap. Can I rob a bank and put a smiley in the letter?

But... I've had enough.

Please do your research before calling someone a scammer and outing him in public.

This was one of the best investments I ever made and do not regret it at all.

And in fact, if the chance to do it again, I would.

Hello! Welcome back! We missed you!

Eta: goodbye ?

Why does every thread have to get crapped on by posts like these.

Example 3

AHHHHHH!!!! HELP HELP HELP!!!!
This guy named Dan promised 200$ round trip tickets to Israel. I sent him names, SSN, CC number, bank account and home address and now he is not answering PM's

This is a definite scammer. The guy used a fake name, took the money and disappeared. (He even kidnapped a participant.) Be very careful.

If you don't like the idea of the thread either explain why it won't work or keep quiet.

The only way this would work is to be sincere and do take it seriously.

The problem is one person can post a lie (or joke) against someone and others might that sincere and might change the way they think. Now even if others say against that, people don't want read a whole thread just to see one person.

And yes, it was tried before and will most likely be tried again in the future. It just is something that won't really work.

If anything, there should be a moderator that you can send recommendations to, and that people can submit queries to. I can't see such a thread working properly in public. (Although i see that i was called out as part of the problem...)

You have every right to ask for references. Maybe next time ask for it before starting a transaction.

Even if it is a favor you still have every right to get references.

Reference? Its in the title... But great way to revive (start ) an old thread...

[JTZ]

Thanks for the responses

I would not do business with that type of person.

You make us all curious. Please do post what he wrote to you.

I dont want people figuring out who it is being that is not my agenda here i just wanted to know in the future if it is normal to ask

[grodnoking]

I'd ask for references even from people I've talked to alot on the forums but never met in person.
I don't care if they have 10k posts

[lubaby]

You make us all curious. Please do post what he wrote to you.

We may be curious, but if he wanted it shared he would've posted it publicly himself. Private messages should be kept private.
