What?! Now I feel guilty for trying to be nice to him.

And the person he scammed was trying to buy Roughnecks tickets when Vivid claimed to have Flames tickets.

Phew, he messaged me a few months ago when I posted a thread looking for tickets to a sold out concert. Had a story about wanting to go but something coming up, but also didn't seem to know anything about the artist or tickets. Just that I could etransfer him $100 and he'd send them to me.

Imagine selling your good word for $80 bucks. He's going to have to live with that. Someone knows his IP, phone number, and eTransfer account info.

I feel bad for the person who was trying to honestly buy some Roughnecks tickets.

Mods, is his IP tied to an actual user here that can be banned as well if needed? What a POS.

IP address appears to be unique. I can dig a little more tonight when I get home. I do see the contact phone number that was used was from Washington state, and they did respond to the confirmation text we sent within a matter of minutes.

That is usually a good sign, as about 95-98% of the new registrations we get are not legit. (Like 90-95% are obvious bots and/or scammers.)

Do they though? Not sure how the US is for that stuff but here you can provide email address only, no phone number if you don't want. And I'd imagine if he's a career scammer he uses throw away email accounts for this stuff.

Ken0042 has a very particular set of skills, skills they have acquired over a very long career.

Skills that make them a nightmare for people like you.

Not cool dude. Not. Cool.

Taking the money and not delivering the tickets? Not cool.

And people wonder why there are rules in the Buy/Sell forum.

This is a place that is local and has been built upon a foundation of Trust.

That Trust has been broken from time to time. I hope those tickets were worth it because you pissed away the trust of a very good community.

Do we have a resident Jim Browning (ken0042), or Bee Keeper?

I'd love to see some justice dealt on this piece of garbage.
