This was a conversation I just had with a scammer who had been parking stolen accounts in my guild. I eventually disbanded the whole guild to keep him out as he had so many accounts and was constantly pretending to be someone else...

The following is a list of accounts I know for certain to be, or recently have been, his:
Virgin
_Immortal_
Axle
_Goddes_
Vandalz
Punisher_BR
A02
FirmRod
DemonicShot
_FReeSTYLER_
chiquinho_BR

(all on Mercury)

Im pretty sure he'll reply to this post sometime and make something up. So kee an eye out for defamitory flames from people who've never posted before saying things like OMG u bot, or YOURE the scammer etc etc. That's pretty much inevitable.

Scammers are the worst of the worst of the worst.

Ooh Mercury stuff.

I checked out that list...a good majority of it are botters in known botting guilds.

Drk_Alliance, The40Thieves, SunEmpire, yeah...all botting guilds.
So for anyone in those guilds, I'm glad they got scammed.

For anyone else, if they're legit, then I'm sorry they got scammed.

Here is the text from the conversation for those who dont like squinting!

Axle: your pathetic

Strauss: ? and scamming accounts isnt? Grow Up

Axle: ITS A GOD DAMN GAME IT ISNT LIFE GET THE F**K OVER IT. Jesus Christ

Strauss: Some people put a lot of money into those accounts
Axle: Thats their fault for being nerds. if they ad a real life theyd be spending money on GFs

Strauss: so what's your problem now - another one of your accounts get banned from a guild? lol

Axle: No

Strauss: If you had a real life you'd be out with your GF and not stealing other peoples s**t

Axle: I sold all my accs on ebay. If you had a real life youd be out with your GF and not globalling s**t

Strauss: So you steal peoples accounts and use their hard work to make money

Axle: My Main char is on Athens anyway. Yeah their my bitches. Thats how s**t works havent u noticed

Strauss: Na I hadnt - f**k off please - im not really interested in talking to you

Axle: =) BTW i scammed 3 more characters since you did those globals, and noone knows. One guy bought 550 silk too

Strauss: I hope you feel like a big man. am i supposed to be impressed?

Axle: "please give me the acc back i spent all my money on it please dont do this to me". I think its funny

Strauss: and what does that prove? other than that youre a piece of s**t? I dont recall pming you recently... you run out of people to boast to to get your kicks?

Axle: actually last night you pm'd me saying haha you piece of s**t scammer learn to play

Strauss: ahh that's right you were dead in event wars again lol, cause you cant play the chars you scam xD. Very Funny. I enjoyed seeing that.

Axle: I dont play them, i sell them. so the people i sell them to cant play them, and i enjoy seeing that

Strauss: riiiight. Anyway it doesnt matter. Ive go more important s**t to do. Chat again sometime.

Axle: Only if you knew how much real life money you can make scamming

Strauss: I dont care. I have a job which i love and i play this game. And people dont call me a piece of s**t when i do my job lol

Axle: and no GF lol

Strauss: Actually i live with my GF of 4 years ia Asia - what are you 14? 15?

Axle: neither do i, noone knows my real account name

Strauss: who cares - you cant lvl your own characters - so what use is your account?

Axle: I sell them for money...

Axle: got $700 off one. about $750 for FRee

Strauss: or are you still cryin that you lost Vandalz

Axle: not really, I got a lvl 79 rogue that is fully gear farmet to 78

Strauss: wooooow... so what? why do you feel the need to tell me all this?

Axle: are you a f**king retard? you asked if I was still crying over Vandalz

Strauss: what u just want to boast? u got noone else to tell?

Axle: and I said no. Lol come to Athens and see how popular you are there. Everyone there hates you lol. I told them all about you. Most of them said you were a bitch ass nerd that needs toget a life.

Strauss: why should i care about what people think about me on a server i dont play on? you make no sense

Axle: lol now you understand why i dont care about these chars

Strauss: ok - so - i ask again - why do you feel the need to talk to me? Lonley?

Yeah I was GM of the40thieves.

We disolved the guild and the union because we just couldn't keep the scammers out and I really really don't want to be associated with scammers.

I felt particularly bad when i saw the character _FReeSTYLER_ had been scammed. He had been on the server from almost day 1, had angel wings, loads of silk and apparently 2 premiums still running. Someone put a lot of time and effort into that character and will be very very disappointed with themselves for trusting this guy, and with joymax for making scamming so easy...

This is why the GMs have a constantly running notice about sharing your information.

I feel for those ppl tho, that is terrible.

That seems a bit hypocritical of you.

You were associated with botters, both in your guild and in your union.
I know for a fact that HandofMidas bots. He openly admitted it and talked about it.

I think it's ironic that you would hate scammers, but then allow and support such things as botting in your guild.

Stealing accounts and making a profit out of it.

Sounds like someone who failed in life.

Get every guild member to charge back, then he has no money, and the people he sold the accounts to will be pissed at him and he'll get in a bunch of shit...

I dont want to get into a botting argument here

This guy is stealing peoples accounts, the silk on those accounts, and their real hard earned cash.

I'm sure he's in a very precarious legal position selling those accounts on ebay... (if he really is - hard to tell what's real and what's a boast)

Also i'm fairly certain this scammer doesn't discriminate between botted characters or legit ones.

To have scammed that many accounts is extremely concerning, this guy is either real good at preying on peoples weaknesses or those people who have been scammed are about as sharp as a bowling ball.

This guy seems to be a complete toss pot. I bet he was getting off to that fact that you actually entertained the idea of chatting with him.

Trust is a big thing on the internet, this guy is proof of how it could blow up in your face

stealing accounts sucks
no matter if u botted or not

but going vigilante is not the solution

Sorry for promised to much this morning, its impossible to post screenshots from the conversation with "ya_dimon" and the second known e bay acc: "134franz" cause of deleted message, but here's a link with wich u can get forwarded to the e bay seller: "ya_dimon".
http://thepainblog.blogspot.com/2007/11 ... en-in.html
feel free to watch his site for past auctions, perhaps you'll find some circumstantial evidences about your stolen accounts.
i complete the list with another name: kernel32(don't know how its typed right, but he offered to my wifes char to copy some good items, just what he need are the login datas, i replied with a question to him: do you know ya_dimon, or 134franz, he stated then: yes, i do)- more then 4 eyes have seen it.
i will check e bay sites almost daily for some strange activities, and btw, if its possible im contacting local hosted police to report it, for sure!



The following is a list of accounts I know for certain to be, or recently have been, his:
Virgin
_Immortal_
Axle
_Goddes_
Vandalz
Punisher_BR
A02
FirmRod
DemonicShot
_FReeSTYLER_
chiquinho_BR

(all on Mercury)

Im pretty sure he'll reply to this post sometime and make something up. So kee an eye out for defamitory flames from people who've never posted before saying things like OMG u bot, or YOURE the scammer etc etc. That's pretty much inevitable.

people dont just simply hand them their hard earned char.

this guy "pays" them with Bad creditcard//paypal acct.
then when they THINK they have been paid and give him his info he needs
he changes pw then later those ppl find out that they cant get paid cus
creditcard//paypal acct isnt legit.

which happends to be Fraud. i looked into reporting him for online fraud
which is job of FBI. Seems like this kid is from Sunburn, Ohio or something gotat check out the registration he made on our old forum again.
