Opinions on trusted members scamming out?

Siesta · Oct 26, 2015

Hard to trust people now a days.
But whatever, scammers is too stupid to realize the actual potential of their account. A simple software would earn more money than their exit scam would.

Mhmm like an online forum like this can get "professional" hahaha

Hackforums is in no way "professional"

Ik there are people that like to pretend and there are actual people doing actual business on there (like you), but overall it just isn't

With scamming rampant and immature members with no actual way of preventing scamming for online names, this is never going to happen unless everyone complied to a certain style of post and rules.

Anyway I'm not a nerd so idrc

Of course there's no way it'll be professional but at the end of the day this forum is Philly's business, if he wants more people to join and be active he'll have to change the way he runs the marketplace, HF's SST market alone conducts millions of dollars worth of online transactions yearly.

Believe me, I've tried.
His tough to get into, I'm not giving up tho.

Ive been scammed for more then 1k in the same week on two occasions and ive never felt like scamming out or ripping someone off, nor do i intend to. Ive put quite a bit of money into the site and its silly to see other investors/supporters act so childish and rip off unsuspecting members.

I hope the site continues to grow and the scamming reduces, although it seems unlikely at this point in time.

Whoever considered @Astro "Trusted" is a moron. Yeah he was a mod, yeah he's done a lot of deals but he's 2013 member. That being said doesn't mean 2013 members aren't trusted, IMO I don't trust them. Also there has been a handful of 2010, 2011, & 2012 members that scammed recently. I personally trust a member that's been around for 4 to 5 years & done multiple deals. That also being said, @Solic you are the only exception of being very trusted. Only 2014 member I trust at least.

I got scammed twice back in 2011, till I trusted @Junior so shout to that cat for helping me out.

Also to all the 2013 & 2014 members, don't take what I said personally. I just haven't dealt or got to know you is all. Always use a MM unless you really trust the person

@Danishmonster I like you cause I respect sarcasm, I'm very sarcastic in person so thanks for reminding to mention 2015 members. Yeah I ain't trusting 2015 any time soon, unless I build a time machine then I'll think about it.

I don't care tbh.
I am not on FK to deal, I'm on here to relax.

I think scamming is bloody ridiculous. But for somebody whom everybody deems trustworthy to scam out is just plain stupid. Most of the trusted members make a decent sum of cash every month so why the heck are they acting like some broke ass idiots by scamming? It's whatever though, people can be scummy if they want, they just won't get anywhere in life being idiots.

I'm not saying all trusted members scam out, I'm just talking about the ones who have scammed previously or will plan on doing it.

Cam · Oct 26, 2015

@False I'm sorry but I really don't think trust should correlate to your join date. It's a day you joined. How does that prove any relevance to the fact that one can just scam out? Doesn't matter what the join date is.

A 2011 member could scam out just as easily as a 2015 member. You're being very biased because your join date is 2012. Lol.

False · Oct 26, 2015

@Cam I don't think you read my post. I also included "multiple deals" & I also mention some 2010, 2011, & 2012 members have scammed/been banned recently. It's just in my opinion I consider them more trusted than a new user is all.

I made $10 an hour when I worked at McDonalds, when I was 16.
I picked up almost $2000 a month.

Not really a bad job. Or well, it sucks, but it's well-paid in Denmark. Not well-paid, but it's fine.

They will never learn to understand the values of hard work.

When you've seen a million euros/dollars in cash, then you'll no longer care about whatever you actually can scam off a forum.

Most of these "trusted" members you speak of, I wouldn't trust with shit. People are gullible, that is all. I feel I can trust 2 people here, and seeing as that's been over a course of 3 years, I wouldn't say that's excessive. The only people I actually trust would include @jason and @fear , honestly. SoLic/Agony/WhateverTheaFuck is a good guy too.

Scums do.
I had to.
I grew up in the hood, that's how it works.

You honestly can't trust anybody these days and that's why I use a MM for ALL of my deals EVEN if it's just a Netflix account!
