If people continue to write this, you realise how easy it would be for scammers to complete one or two successful trade, some postive feedback and use them to convince some sucker to send first?

You should simply write, 'successful transfer completed with XXX for $XXX'
excuse me, but what quote was directed at me? I didn't even ask rmoriar to say anything about me. After the deal went through I just asked him if he wanted me to post that trasnfer went truth and he said yes. I never once asked him to say anything about me. I've been on stars for 4-5 years under the same screen name and pocketfives under same screen name for 3-4 years so no I'm not a scam and I sent first seeing as I just joined this site and if I am to do further transactions on this site (which is unlikely since I just wanted to get $200 on there for some tournies seeing as I don't play on ft and spend most my time on stars), you can check my sharkscope and opr to see how long I've been playing. With that being said, with all the scammers that are out there I actually do appreciate there is a site like twoplustwo and posters like yourself that do take the time to inform others of the scammers out there. You are completely right in saying rmoriar shouldn't say I'm legit seeing as have only posted twice and registered for twoplustwo yesterday (same day as deal went through) so I understand your position. Carry on good sir.
But I'm still curious to know what quote was directed at me? was it the stolen credit cards someone brought up?

Edit: Read the above posts and some said that scammers look to transfer it all at once. For the record, the transaction I did was in two increments and it was for very small amount. Two $100 transfers they were.

hey i'm looking for a few hundred on stars. I have money on bookmaker.com to transfer to you.. By doing this-- everyone wins. I am a lifetime loser at poker, and you are probably a lifetime loser at sports betting. Help the poker economy folks! I will transfer first to someone who has done this before.

Sorry for the way it came across, i wasn't accusing you of being a scammer by any means. I was just trying to give a warning to ppl in this thread who use phrases like, 'did a transfer with XXX he is totally legit.' He should not be writing that because he is not qualified to say it, he has done one transfer with you.

This post (6:24 pm) conflicts with what my stars client shows (transfer going through @ 16:09 which i think is 4:09 pm) and what my email shows:

We have transferred $1000.00 from your account to 'DOTTT' as per your request. Good luck to you both. Regards, PokerStars Cashier

so I guess we'll see when he signs on next what happened, but I've sent him some pms and hopefully it was some kind of misunderstanding (maybe cashier not refreshing?)

There is a long thread by wcgrider on his experience and pokerstar's short response. Do a search.

Most scammers fit into this profile.
- New 2+2 account with few posts yet seem to know how the trading thread works.
- Willing to send first and all at once. Doesn't it seem strange that these new accounts would be this trusting.
- No or very little playing history on OPR or sharkscope.
more signs:

(1) trading stars without a vig.
(2) search for their references in the trading thread. just a reference isn't enough. you have to check who the reference is. how long the 2p2er who gave the reference has been a member and if the 2p2er who gave them a reference has an inflated post count.
(3) inflated post count. who posts 10 times a day. maybe some of you are that bored, but really.
(4) only references 1 or 2 days old. this isn't enough time for chargebacks to occur on a stolen credit card and funds to be zapped from your poker account.

so here's what tipped me off. the 2 PMs i got from 2 seperate users sent off alarms. no way i was gonna do this trade, but i figured i'd do a little research for the 2p2 community. the reference i checked for sure set it off. now maybe this 2p2er who referred him is legit. maybe not. but here's the link to the referral:

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/19...87#post6791158

now his 1 referral has no other trading references, 100+ posts and has only been a member for a month. hmmm. who posts this much. so i thought 2p2er bursito was a fake reference. turns out bursito also got scammed. guess he's just a poor newbie trader who has got to deal with the rif raf. and i guess he just loves posting like crazy on 2p2.

so i suggest to traders and people looking for trades. get a few people you trust and don't deal with the rif raf. i met my trader online here and deal with him exclusively to get money off ap and onto stars. don't see him posting here any more. think he has a big enough trustworthy client base that he no longer deals with the rif raf. sucks for newbies, but i won't deal with them and i won't deal with anyone who doesn't have a ref from some very established trader. i post occasionally and i sell my stars for ftp and these are the guidelines i follow and i don't have problems and i don't trade 1st.

can we get a lock out thread for those of us with 5 plus refs? or 10+ refs?
