I'm not sure if this one has been done before, but someone got scammed by an imposter of me recently and this is how it worked.
Red Fall (scammer)
The Viper000 (Me)
skye3001 (got scammed)
Red Fall messaged me on MSN and said he was getting new members to join Sythe. I said this was great, and he wanted me to help. One of the times he said they PMed me and he was just curious to know what they said. So I told him. The second time, he said he had a bet going with the other person that he would know what my reply back would be. And, if I told him, he'd give me a cut of the winnings.
Nothing harmful correct?
Well, in my reply back I simply said, "Hello and Welcome to Sythe" etc.
Then, I get a PM from skye3001 today threatening to report me as a scammer if I did not give him recovery questions? Basically, Red Fall used the knowledge of my PM to pretend he was me. The emails did not match at all, and so he scammed all by PM and my unknowing.
Just a warning to you other members and other middlemen!
