Right.

THis guy named "Ahmed_10" registers a brand new account, posts that he wants ot buy stuff in 15+ threads.

I smell a troll.

Just a heads up.

 

[seer37]

sounds like a scammer

 

[builderbobftw]

Yep.

Thats what I was thinking, since (no offense) some of the stuff he was agreeeing to buy was real crap for pricing.

My geography isn't so good, but maybe he's looking to open a consignment shop over in West Africa , right next to Prince Albert's Nigerian Bank.

I don't know, he wanted to buy my i7 920 setup for $900, which was a fair price.

Just make sure you get the $ before sending the system and I'd setup an account specifically for that transaction so any account info isn't being used for anything else !!

Not you, Somebody had a single core 2.2ghz for 350$ with a 60gb hdd .

He made a weird post saying he was some sort of diplomat in my thread, so I told him, since it was international, the price would be $10,000 payable in cash. He sent me a PM asking me if western union is ok lol. Some people.

 

[builderbobftw]

i will pay the 10,000$ i will need your full name and address, i will use a western union or bank transfer since it involved a large amount of money.

 

[builderbobftw]

Haha.

Seems trustowthy no?

9 times out of 10, most foreign scammers will always put the $ sign after the amount, because they do not comprehend how the English language works when it comes down to currency notation.

Just a tip for everyone out there.

I'd say that 9 times out of 10 a non-US person will put the $ after the amount because that's how they do it. It has nothing to do with being a scammer, it just means they're not American.

Even I once in a while put the $ AFTER the number, and I am niether a forginer or a scammer.

 

[MadAdmiral]

Ok, it's LIKELY that they're not American...

 

[builderbobftw]

Yeh.

It wasn't realy directed at you, i was just pointing out htat someone putting a $ sign after the number has no bearing on wether or not that are a troll.
