Permaban crook!

If he really is the one who held that auction the OP linked then sure he deserves a ban. Hope it wasn't just a dumb idea to impersonate someone else to get attention.
 
It is the same guy. He has a FS/T thread up for an xbox360 and he gives that ebay username as one reference.

Edit: I PM'ed the mods about this too. We could also use a FS/T sticky about this guy as well since he's trading there.

Man, is that guy an idiot or what? How could he not have realized people would be able to track down the auction. Talk about ownage.

He is scamming people on eBay and when he got called on it by a buyer he came to OT to ask for legal advise (and sympathy it seems).

fusetalk is so great that it keeps the threadids the same after a forum move but throws in the catid in the URLs, thereby making all old links to the thread useless. :thumbsup:

Yep! Getting Anand's money's worth!

As someone points out in the thread linked above, his disclaimer is white text on a white background marked by an asterik. This guy needs to boot and bad. That was a deliberate attempt to deceive any would be buyer.

He might still. As long as he refunds the money of those who are about to call the police/feds/whoever, I doubt anybody will do anything.
