Briefly explain the trade: I'm selling my account, he was attempting to purchase it
How they scammed: He attempted to scam me by impersonating a reputable member of a similar forum ( http://www.epicnpc.com/trader-feedback/256925-cubanitamd-feedback-thread.html ). He then used forged email headers to try and prove that he was this person
Proof that you were not talking to an impostor: I was talking to an imposter...this guy is an imposter, that's the whole point
Trade screenshots:
Screenshot of a post showing the scammer's email:
Link to a post showing the scammer's email: Don't have one since initial contact was done via PM
Also here is a screenshot from thunderbird showing the forged header, notice that it was received by emkei.cz, which is a site for easily sending email with forged headers.
And notice in the log he refuses to use a middleman, refuses to send me a PM on the account he has a reputation on, etc. Obviously he's attempting to use someone elses good name to scam people on this forum.
