Thread: Scammers and Cheaters

Gugi, my dear friend, well done. Well done, indeed.

It's a great world, packed with beautiful people, but also, sadly, with its share of warts.

Thank you for your outstanding service! We are appreciate it!
Maybe there is a reason to write name of this scammer? Maybe he use same eBay nickname. Everyone need to know their "heroes"

Gugi most certainly does a good job, but that doesn't mean you can relax. Don't make it easy for people - don't ever, ever purchase goods using "personal payment" paypal, even from people you think you know. If they are on the level, they will understand. Of course it is no guarantee, but at least there are buyer protection mechanisms in place in a "goods and services" paypal transaction - they might not be much, but they are better than the "none" you get with personal payments.

James.

What a scum bag! Ugh! Nice catch

Thanks Gugi, while I have not yet had the privilege of purchasing from the SRP classifieds, I appreciate that fact that you and the other moderators are doing what you can to ensure each and every experience here is edifying.

This is a great example why we all appreciate the Moderators on SRP. You all do a great job! Terrible how people try and scam others...

thanks a ton for sharing. It is too sad but unfortunatly it will always be in the world no matter what. I think that it is a great thing for us to have a feedback system on here. I only have made 1 transaction but got great feedback and now have someone who will vouche for my authenticity. Buyers should ALWAYS beware

Also there is no problem with making a mistake, or having a lapse of judgment, we all have bad days and that's simply part of life. But unfortunately in small number of cases it is way beyond that. And then some of those people go to other forums boasting that they have been banned from SRP. I am actually amazed that most of the time they seem to be embraced as heroes who stood up to the 'evil SRP'. I'm happy to say that that's one thing that you will not find on this forum - we take the high road and would rather enjoy this hobby than badmouth others.

man I love SRP. I could care less to even type another forum into my browser. SRP is my one and only

Thanks and keep fighting the good fight, Mods!

Its funny cause I was surprised to even discover that "Shaving forum" was a thing that existed. Seriously, i was like "That's a thing?"

Then reading comments on a BruceOnShaving article I came to realize that not only was "Shaving forum" a thing...but "Shaving forum drama" was a thing. LOL! Seriously?! It'll be awhile before anything on the internet surprises and amuses me like that did.

This isn't as funny as that, but not un-surprising to see. If you're paying someone $200 via paypal, and they're balking about a couple dollar fee...that's a red flag. Anyway, nice Mod job. Thanks for looking out.
