Not Just Another BST Scammer Thread

[Leon]

It is disheartening as to the amount of scamming that has gone on in the Buy, Sell, Trade (BST) sections, mostly over the last few years. To help with that, there are now stickies in all of the BST areas alerting members of scammers. We can refine them as needed. I would much prefer not to have those there. But it is what it is.

To take take a little sting out of the fraud, to some small extent, I am announcing a one time program.

If you were scammed on the forum (not off of the forum) then I will reimburse you 30%. You can pm me and it will stay private.

A few caveats:

*The fraud had to occur in the last 5 years from today. Pm me anyway but that sounds pretty fair.

*$2000 dollar total loss limit. If it's more still PM me about it and we'll talk.
(I don't think I have seen any over approximately $1600 and that was maybe 1. Almost all others have been $50-$600.)

*This program is not for any bad transactions between members. That wasn't scamming. That was a bad transaction. This had to be theft, of money, by an unknown scammer.

*The member must have made the fraud public on the forum, sent me a private message or email, or can otherwise show me they were defrauded.

*This program will extend out until 1200 am CST, 1/1/2023.

Each case will be an independent decision and I reserve the right to cancel, or change anything about this program at any time. Just to cover my arse...

I hope this stuff stops.

And a Cobby because every thread needs a card.
