Just wanted to let everybody know of a recent experience with HBKer: May 21, I received a PM asking me if I was still interested in a Google Adwords voucher in response to a thread I had replied to a few days ago. A few PM's later, $75 is sent via PayPal to his email address, HBKer goes offline never to be heard of again. A complaint has been filed with PayPal and I am waiting to see the outcome of that. If HBKer contacts you and tries to sell you something- RUN AWAY!!!!
I think we should rename this forum the 'name and shame' forum because that's what it seems to be turning into. Sorry for your loss sitefever but you're by no means alone: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=339790 http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=342332 HBker profile.
I dont understand why somebody would get an infraction against them for trying to warn other DP members about scammers so that we can continue to conduct business in an honest manner around here. That just pisses me off. From now on Ill just keep it to myself, and whoever is throwing the infractions around will be the next one scammed by this guy...
I think he means for starting this thread. Only mods can throw infractions about. HBker isn't online himself so a mod must have stumbled on this thread and taken the initiative.
I sent a PM to the administrator when this happened just to let him know so he can decide what he wants to do with his account. I just dont understand why I get infractions for this..?
i don't think there is any infraction for scamming! anyways, there was a thread already which was dedicated to the same member! remember he bought a ps2 with the scammed money, or he was a different member, lol too many scammers arround
