H Ben Jaafar (email addresses hbenjaafar@live.ca and hbenjaafar@hotmail.com) has been banned from Bartertown.
The reason he was banned is...


...multi-accounting...

Surprise!!!!


We have also been informed, by a friendly Rogue Market staff member, that he is active over there with both ID's and they have their equivalent of a Bad Trader Report opened on him.
Apparently, the man (boy?) has been accused of scamming.

This is just fuel for the fire, of course. It makes it that much more imperative that we get rid of him.

If you have any open trades with him, please cancel them. If he's shipped minis to you, please complete your end of the transaction.
If you're waiting for him to send stuff to you *ahem*, email him at one of the addresses above and you may be able to resolve it with him there.

thanks Eric......he was trying to get me to ship $200 worth of stuff to Canada before I received stuff from him.
It didn't feel right from the start. He never was able to give a complete list of the stuff he was trading and said he had done deals like this all the time.

thanks,
Rick

If I have sent him stuff what would you say the chances of getting it back as he traded the stuff he was giving to me off.

Probably 50/50, at best.
The problem is taht, *IF* he is, indeed, scamming people as he's accused of, you aren't likely to receive anything back. If not... he still might be so peeved over banning that he'll punish you simply because you're from BTown (not saying he WILL, just that it could happen).

I would suggest contacting him in some other fashion. Do you have his email address? Phone number? Have you tried contacting him on DakkaDakka, where he's still active?

Eric

Pardon the Necro but,

I actually live in Surrey BC, a mere 20 minute drive away from this guy. I realise it's been quite a while but I can "get in touch" with him if you will.

Lemme know,

Cheers,

Our buddy has been nabbed again.
He was caught with some shady dealings over on Rogue Market under the User ID of "Ravage" and email address of wartrader@hotmail.com.

We caught him here, as well, using the same ID and email.

If you have ANY deals with this man, STOP THEM if possible.
If you've been convinced to send first, and have done so, contact me and I will see what personal information I can dredge up on him for you.

Eric

Hi,

I know I have low rep, but if this ever involves the popo, I'm based in Richmond, a mere 20 mins away from him / her.
