Like the others pointed out, the guy just added himself on here and then sold straight away. Never buy off anyone who is newly added and has very few posts.

If you have the direct bank details of this person then you need to do what is known in the UK as a "Jeremey Clarkson".

What is that I hear you ask?

Well he is a journalist / presenter who wrote in his column that it was perfectly safe to give out your bank details as there was no way of deducting money from a persons account... only pay in and thus he posted his sort code and account number.

A reader then worked out which bank he used (from his sort code) and went and picked up a direct debit form, completed it and arranged to debit money each month to a registered charity.

I dunno how long it took Clarkson to realise the money was leaving his account each month but he posted a followup a few months later.

So there you go.. set up a direct debit with a charity from this guy's account

Never TRUST people with only 1 post!!!!

[Nlandas]

Admins should ban his account, even though I know he'll just make a new one.

First of all, can you have the bank details and ask your bank office to verify the identity and the address of this guy.
Just show an "home made" Email where you'll wrote in place of the seller, that the money is locked for "inspection" by the seller bank !!!
Then you could get the address and find a nice Amiga friend in Greek to visit him soon...

[kreciu]

So, may be some small update of "personal" data in accounts, like country? So, we can identify our nationalities?

Just a idea...

How about we raise money to set a trap for this bugger to hand him to the police?

This is scary.  I just recently started lurking in the Amiga scene again, and have been hoping to fin an A4000 (or A4kT!).  I had C64s and played a lot with a friend's A1200 (I think) when I was a kid, and miss it.

I could very easily have been scammed by this guy  I won't use Fleabay to buy, and now I'm nervous about direct buy via scene forums

[Argus]

Well, if you post enough you should develop a good reputation (unless you're doomy or boingboss in disguise  Try buying from reputable amiga.org members who have bought/sold stuff already.  For new kit, you could always try Amigakit.com, he has even NOS A1200s and CD32s for sale.  I've never had a problem with anything Matthew has sent.  Redrumloa is a long-time seller with a new on-line shop and offers occasionally direct buy options for Amiga and C64/128 stuff to members here. I could also recommend Jens (Schoenfeld) of Individual Computers, though most of his stuff is direct buy through resellers like redrumloa and Amigakit.  Mika L. (user mrmkl) is a hardware developer of the 68000 ide adapter, he's very honest and a good option if he makes another run of these cool adapters.  Effy, DJBase, BenShep, Gdanko and many others are also honest guys.  The list goes on and on really.  It's really too bad a few scammers have hurt some members, but I'd have to say the vast majority of folks here who post often are an honest, albeit sometimes cranky lot.

This couln't be Bent Binder could it? I guess he will reappear sometime. Remember he scammed over 2500 Euros from  AOrg members.

Maybe another clue is that he's asking euros for a video toaster.

I remember not too long ago some AO members saying the same thing in response to a post where someone was pointing out an ebay auction that had all that information on it. Who's  :crazy: now, huh?
