I've reported a scammer, but his threads are still up...
30 June, 2013, 07:11
I'm just putting this here so that any concerned mod can see it and act upon it. I did message a bunch of mods last night but perhaps they've not seen the message yet and at this point the questionable threads have been seen by hundreds of members, some of whom may have been starting to hand over cash.
Essentially there is a new forum member selling three guns very cheaply, two shiny TM pistols and a G&G M4A1. Every single picture they have used has been directly lifted from old reviews of these guns on other forums (I have the links if you want them). Now this alone does not constitute 'scamming,' and the threads do suggest you could 'pick up' the guns, but it certainly constitutes suspicious enough behaviour (as well as false representation) which should be enough to shut the threads down until ownership of these guns can be proven.

Wow, just out of nosiness I searched. Took about 30 seconds with google image search to find the images he's lifted.

Scamming is bad enough, but lazy scamming, well, that's just unforgivable.
