Think we could bate him into selling 200 PTS? So I could maybe get 100 back and the other guy too?
Also, can I have his IP address that get's listed on posts.
Thanks

We mods will be target no. 1 to fraudulent users, they will try to use us and our "trust" to scam other users.

Stay safe and report.

Why does he want the IP address? For what?

Probably to try to compromise the users computer.

Mrodstein was accused by at least two people of being a scammer and when I was brought in to escrow a transaction, the seller put up PTS but Mrodstein disappeared never sent the PTS, I eventually bought the escrowd amount
