    My advices:
    - never ask for paypal unless with a very very very reputated member ...
    - always read itrader comments

    Thanks for the warning

    That member's profile was looking pretty good. 37 positive comments and 2 rep blobs. 500 post... That is unlikely for a scammer..

    Though I haven't been scammed by him yet. He offered to buy something off of me, but continues to ignore pms. Thank goodness I didn't give him the info before payment, and that he didn't send payment and me send the info. After a couple of days, I checked his past posts and itrader, but didn't see anything fishy.

    I had some transactions with noniman before. He was easy to deal with and he didn't scam me and he ordered forum posts multiple times before.
