I've gotten a few hang-up calls from an "Unavailable Number" within the last 20 minutes. I can't say that I'm really all that happy about it. Could just be coincidence though, but I've never gotten a series of random hang-ups in the 7 years that I've had this number.

If it was from a 415 area code it was from Brendan. I just gave him an infraction for

"contacting people outside the forum/acting stupid"

Please let me know, through a PM or email, if those continue. I do have his phone number and I am 100% sure we can get to his parents if need be....sorry for the issue. I also had 2 separate calls just now too. The first one was a kid acting confused and the second one was a hang up.

Thanks Leon. No calls lately. I'll definitely let you know if they start up again.

What I don't get is how 14 year olds have ebay and paypal accounts- wouldn't this mean they have credit cards also (to have the paypal account)?

Or does their parents set them up with all of this?

Hey Leon, how about you just ban me from this forum, alright? I have no interest in being berated and attacked by a gang of members, including moderators. If this was any reasonable forum, this discussion would have been closed long ago. So why don't you guys just quit giving me hell when you know nothing about my eBay situation and go inbreed like I do according to kingoftheclout.

Your wish is my command.....SteakNchop is now banned.....now you can go to your other forum and have fun with your
friends.....

btw, this kid sent me a PM just now...I told him to quit calling people outside the board. He said he was confirming my identity. I was going to ban him for that until I saw this post where he asked to be banned anyway....made my job easier. Ebay is full of this crap I guess.

Also, if I am not mistaking, you have to be of legal age to have a credit card unless you have a co-signer that is of legal age....not that any of this really matters as this kid is unfortunately savvy enough to get around many safeguards...

Nowadays, 14 year old kids use fake ebay auctions to make money.
Not.

It's not like I don't have to mow lands for "Space Invaders." I just use debit, credit etc. for online stuff.

I think we've learned at least 3 things today.

1)don't have your phone number available online.

2)don't spend $6.02 for a dollar bill on ebay, or you'll get hacked.

3)14 year old kids don't have to mow lawns for space invaders anymore, they sell electronic pictures of corned beef hash on ebay.

Well, now you know. And knowing is half the battle.
