Mike on a bike Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Check out this link Link: http://www.rwg.bz/bo...opic=48512&st=0 at other RWG all the info you need there. Now here is the bad part listen to how he got one of the RWG guys who is no rookie with over 3000 posts and years of board experience. "Yes he did, similar thing, had feedback, knew about watches, even bought some and regular poster on forum! He strung me along, I guess until the 30 day window or whatever on PayPal then ceased contact... I got sent the details you have from a mate on forum with some skills!" Now the moderators and admins there are on the thread they know of this POS and are trying to track down, but be careful. The details are there (real name maybe, e-mail used, etc) I will not post here as our mods do not have first hand knowledge and rightfully have asked me not to. PS he went under "peep"but that can change like a fart in the wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielv2000 Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Once again, can we identify these people? We know there are always scammers, but, when we actually have one identified and guilty, lets out this mother f**ker. Seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted April 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Daniel follow link , easy as that. As I stated our admins felt that they had no first hand knowledge so warning given as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrboombasteke Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 Thanks for the heads up Mike. Will probably make most of us only deal with people we know. Shame for the new enthusiasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSTEEL Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 What a bastard!! I strung along a wannabie scammer over on WatchNet yesterday. Posted about it on RWG. Report him to the admins there. Scum of the earth they all are! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scum of the earth they all are! let's put it this way mate.. every forum that trading of any sort happens on, would have its fair share of scammers. We cannot eliminate them the same way we cannot eliminate roaches from planet Earth, but we can certainly be vigilant and exercise proper caution.

martijnp Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 We can get the IP adres, give him an IP ban. But I suppose we can't stop it, he will use a proxy server and get to the forum on another IP adres everytime he want to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stolikat Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 I was sold a broken watch from a scanner on RG. He thought he was being cute using a different screen name there then he used over on RWI. He has since been banned on both forums. Just did a check here and his name "thebenZ" is registered here. He is a confirmed scammer based in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted April 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 Great Nanuq thanks for the look up. Good stolikat keep guys informed, sorry about lose. If we go about blindly saying there will always be scammers there surely will but if we keep our eyes open and keep other members in the loop we can combat it Will this board or any other ever be scammer free no but I intend ours to have a reputation of a tough place for them to operate, they are looking for easy marks we are not going to be easy.
