MR2Trader Website Support Scammer warning on www.mr2trader.com

Ncturnal · 10-18-2005, 11:40 AM

MR2Trader has been visited by what appears to be a scammer at work. The individual in question sent the exact same query to 10 different sellers between 7:57 AM and 8:22 AM EST, before I disabled his account at 8:25 AM. The message they sent is quoted below. The user's IP address was forged, and the fact that the exact same letter was sent out multiple times raises several red flags. These scam letters are so typical, it's like they came out of a "How to be a scammer 101" textbook. If you recieve any offers that seem fishy, please notify us immediately.

Someone should track him down and lop his balls off.

Now that's the most reasonable thing I've heard all day!

smartash · 10-20-2005, 07:26 PM

Let him keep his balls, lopping off his yoohoo would be much more effective.
