    My name is Hand, my username on this board was:
    hand

    Now my username is danh due to another user on this board getting access to my account and changing the properties to his. So now I can't change the password to get back in.

    I am putting this post due to having done business with people on this site both buying and selling. I want to make sure everyone knows that HAND is NOT ME.

    I just put a thread:

    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=139776

    for a logo contest I held. The winner needs to contact me at this address and they know who they are. If they contact my old username HAND i'm sure the person will not reply.

    Unfortunetly the board rules do not allow me to say who took my name. BUT, if anyone messages me and ask i'll tell them unless i'm told I can't do that also.

    Be leary of people on the site.

    Because he bought sites off me, i transfered everything then he claims "fraud" to paypal. Then tries to access my paypal acct, and numerous other acct's I have.
    Have tried contacting him all day thru email and on the board (which he is on right now) yet he ignores me. He knows he's wrong and it's bs....

    Thank you very much for this. I am now able to access my records in order to handle this legally.I am editing this post due to while copying and pasting for my records to paypal I noticed the user was "banned". Great job monitoring and running the boards.

    Again

    And I suppose, we are not supposed to know who is he, right??

    I think this is 2nd case like this, there is a similar thread by some user, claiming that someone had stolen his DP account. I think if this case is true then prolly the other user is also telling the truth and both frauds are done by the same user. So its high time you guy stop hiding his identity and tell us his name.

    It will simply help to protect other users..

    No "he" did not exactly give away his password when he sold his site. One of the sites has an admin panel and that password was close to another password hence he went after all my domains.

    As far as the comment of:

    " think this is 2nd case like this, there is a similar thread by some user, claiming that someone had stolen his DP account. I think if this case is true then prolly the other user is also telling the truth and both frauds are done by the same user. So its high time you guy stop hiding his identity and tell us his name."

    Like I originally said I don't beleive i'm allowed to just put a post and say "who" it was. If the Moderators of the board want to say that is fine with me. That is my understanding of the policy on this forum.

    FAQ's:
    Personal attacks against people, or sites will not be tolerated. If you have an issue with someone or their site, take it up with them personally.

    I beleive that would fall under what i'm talking about.

    Man, that rule applies to Members not fraudsters..

    If you are not unvieling the name of fraudster, this thread is nothing but useless.
    Your A/c hacking problem would have been solved through PMs to the Mods.

    This was my original post "I am putting this post due to having done business with people on this site both buying and selling. I want to make sure everyone knows that HAND is NOT ME."

    So yes there was a reason for me to post.
