A fairly new member proposed I send them "money" for cards that they had. A second proposal was a trade where I was offered a significant amount of cards for only four of mine. This same username was banned from at least two different trading sites. I won't post the username at this time but please be careful. "If it looks too good..."

Have you reported to admin? Your reasoning for not posting the username?

The reason many of us like this site is that we protect each other from scammers. This would not be the first one; all others in question were raised in this forum making other members aware of such. If he isn't a scammer, he would speak up and then also be willing to make the first move in a trade, patiently waiting for his end of the deal to be completed before expecting anything in return. Don't hide or protect these individuals; expose them before they scam another honest member.

Also good to look in the member directory after seeing a post like this.
I see 3 other IDs in addition (for a total of 4) that look to be the same person. 2 of which were ceated and never used again (although one was fairly recent).
Thanks for the alert.

In fairness to analog, he did share the information with me via pm when I asked him for it. I can see both sides on this, though. Once it would have been definite I'm sure he'd have outed him.

Robert “It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops. Today, October 2, a Sunday of rain and broken branches and leaf-clogged drains and slick streets, it stopped and summer was gone.”

Has recently added some expensive cards to his sale/trade list. In some cases, multiples. I'm totally stalking his moves now. Beware!
