Member and BST Warning

[Leon]

Thanks for the heads up, Scott.
IF anyone on this forum reneges in an auction or here on the forum, and I find out about it, they won't be here. Why would we want someone who reneges on our forum?
This is a separate situation, than the other thread, about who to allow on the forum. I am watching the other thread to get members thoughts. On reneging I don't need to get other opinions

And my only pick up from the Dallas Card Show.

I remember when the 72 BB cards came out, Mays and Yaz were in the first series, in 71 both were in a high number series that never made its way to my hometown; every other pack I bought had Yaz or Mays. I was in heaven

I was just informed that a similar thing is happening to me.

I am still getting the details, but it sounds like someone is emailing users through this platform and trying to negotiate pretending to be me.

Please tread carefully. I’m usually happy to communicate via email/text so if you’d like to confirm it’s me through another means please try that and if this fraudster is reluctant to do so, that should serve as a red flag.

The a-holes email address is: m3619441@gmail.com. He went by the name Mark.

Maybe sign up their email to receive a lot of junk mail from some very interesting sources.

Perhaps Leon can institute a system whereby a members identity could be verified via a check mark program. We can even color code it depending on verifiability. Let's say a blue checkmark is the highest level.

Leon can even charge a fee....let's say 8 dollars a month, to prove said person is actually that person.

I mean, who in their right mind would pay 8 dollars a month, if they weren't actually that person???

I don't see how that could possibly go wrong.

........oh wait!..........

Seriously though, it's crappy what's going on. I'm surprised this thread isn't getting more responses.
