[Yemon]

Scammer's profile link: http://www.sythe.org/members/258887-bogdan123.html
Explanation of the trade: N/A
How they scammed: Shorter question would be, how they didn't scam.. (Attempting to delete evidence, Lieing about scamming, Ban evading over 3 times, No proof of repayment to victims of Mmoexchange who lost over 1b.)
1.
http://www.sythe.org/report-scammer-archive/1029177-h-o-l-y-one-scammer.html - $72 + The 80m
2.
http://www.sythe.org/report-scammer...scammed-me-took-all-my-money.html#post8058642 - $11 + 10m (Admitted to the scam later in an appeal)
3.
http://www.sythe.org/report-scammer-archive/1029243-h-o-l-y-one-scammer.html - Another scam done from an account he was already ban evading on.
4. Bit bigger one - Over 1b scammed on mmoexchange, claims he paid them back but proof was never provided in the appeal... Also was never unbanned from the site meaning he is still an Offsite Scammer.

My Name is Bogdan, its 6 months+ I believe. This is my high parder request. i changed my life and my ways in many ways.
My past- I was a good guy at first, but then i got scammed a few times on sythe, i hated it so much, then i started to scam, i gained some trust then scammed. Then when i was banned, i got on another ip, gained some trust and scammed again, finally i was banned. I was so young and stupid, all i wanted was to be the best,etc what most teens want. I am srry for all my actions, for the people that i have scammed in the past i am terrible srry for my actions.

Also, i was a member of mmoeexchange.net my name there is bogdan, i was lvl 4 verfied, i had over 190+ feedback all 100%, i was doing some chinning for a guy, he had over 1Bill bank, which i took, i was banned from mmoe. Then i felt really guilty, i felt terrible, then i repaid the guy, i gave him 1.17B rsgp back. After that i was unbanned from mmoexchange.net i was on that forums for over a month, then simple one of the admins, banned me for no reason and said, he had implemented a new rule called, insurance, so he said if i wanted to get back on mmoe i had to pay 1.17B rsgp, i dont have this kind of money, and i see less and less members on that site. So i basically quit. But i find it unfair how i paid 1.17B rsgp back, and i am freinds with that person now, and i was unbanned for over a month+ then was banned out of nowhere and am expected to pay 1.17B to the admin as insurance, i find that to be unfair.

On sythe a year ago or more, i scammed people, i made other accounts-ban evaded. My accounts were , Bogdan123, my 2nd was H O L Y One , TheLastAirBender, and i think i used bogdan101 or i just made that to appeal in the past, then i went on a trip to ukraine for 2 months,i made a account called BogdanMMOE, i tried selling my account on sythe, etc. I never tried to scam anyone when i made this account or do anything bad. As its been over a month or so now, and i have not logged in on that account "BogdanMMOE on sythe" its not banned or anything, i have not logged in at all. Ive been a member of other fourms, i find sythe to be the best. I am srry for everything i did or said, give me another shot.

I have changed, i am now 20 years old, i graduated high school. I got a job, at a hospital,, i finally realized, what the real life/world is, what a community like sythe is. I am a member of powerbot close to a year, i am also a sponsor on powerbot, and not once have i scammed anyone. I bought gold from people, and many people went first to me. I am also a lifetime Sponsor and v.i.p member on runedream. I am srry for all my actions i am asking if i could please get another chance on sythe . I am willing to pay back any user i scammed in the past, with your help. I recently moved to a new location, and i got new internet here, i can make a new account and start out fresh, and the only ip would be my current one.
Please give me 1 last chance, i came clean with everything i did in the past, i don't there is much more i can say. I miss sythe everyday and i can only dream and wish of another chance, and i will not Ever! ban evade just because i moved, and got new internet, and i can't be traced.
Sincerely, Bogdan

The "And got new internet and I can't be traced." Should alone bring some red flags meaning he knows several methods to ban evading without being caught, leaving the amount he actually scammed impossible to predict at the time.

First and foremost, My real name is Bogdan, i started playing runescape when i was 13 or 14 years old, i Joined sythe when i was 16-17 years old, back in 2010. My account has Bogdan123 I was very active on sythe, i usually bought gold/items and sold. I was learing the runesacpe market. I was scammed a few times, i left, bad, one time i lost a white partyhat, someone keylogged me/ took over my computer. This made me feel really bad, i was furious i was a teenager, i wanted to be the best, and i scammed people on sythe, and i was banned, i made a new account on another ip i evaded, and built up some trust and scammed again. i was banned for scamming and evading, and my ip was permanently banned. Then i could no use sythe, its been about 2 years,, in those 2 years i tried to appeal a few times, about 3 or so i was denied eveytime.
About a year ago i started to use powerbot, i am a Sponsor, there, with 62+feedbacks all positive, my name on powerbot is EngineerX, i traded lots of gold, ive been trusted with lots of wealth. I sold my main account on powerbot for about 3.75-3.8Bill rsgp. i gained alot of respect and trust. Ive been a member on powerbot for a 1 year+ now.
Recently i moved to a apartment, on a new ip, i started to use sythe, short time here, i donated $5, i want to donate alot more to sythe, i love the community, and i want to be part of it> i am sick and tired of trying to evade, because i just know for a fact that i will be banned.
I am very srry for any person that i scammed, or tried to scam, i was 16-17 please forgive me I have a job at a hopsital , i know what it means to earn money, its hard work, its not easy. i work very hard for my money, I want to pay back every person i scammed, Plz admins/mods give me 1 last chance. I am truly srry for my acitions, i changed my life in many ways. I am now 20years old. English is my 2nd language i was born in ukraine moved to usa when i was 5, i live in WA state.
I am truly talking from my heart about everything i say in my appeal, again i want to say i am extremely srry to the people i scammed, i want to pay back every user, i would need mods help on this, it's been almost 2 years. I changed, i promise you that. I just don't see what more i can say. All i want is to be a member of sythe again. I love the site and community alot. Sythe was my first community that i joined online.
Please give me 1 last change. In life we all make mistakes, were are humans we are different from one another, Some of us make very big mistakes buy if we truly as for forgiveness i think we should be forgiven I am a Christian i love God with all my heart, and hope to be heaven one day, in are short life, we should try and be the person we can, and help others. It says in the Bible Matthew 6:15 But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins. When you truly fall to the bottom of life that's, then when your life changes. Please sythe community forgive me for all my past. I am 20 years old, i know what i did in the past is extremely wrong and bad, i ask for everyone's forgiveness.
Please forgive me if my appeal has bad grammer, as english is my 2nd language. I hope i can be a member again of sythe, it's the best community that i can across in my life, and in this world. -Bogdan

Another appeal from Bogdan, not only were the appeals not 6 months in time, but the user admits to having scammed even more members on his original account Bogdan123. The only reports I could find were regarding H O L Y, meaning there's at least 2-3 other people from that sythe account who were scammed and never accounted for in the 500m Payback from his appeal. There's still people who we can't find that were never paid and never will be because of Bogdan.
6. http://www.sythe.org/report-scammer-archive/917558-junk-scam-bogdan123.html - Found a bogdan123 Scam, user scammed 34 + 34 here. Meaning a total of 68m was technically scammed... Given the $1/m at the time, we are not talking about small amounts.
7. http://www.sythe.org/runescape-3-item-exchange/943544-selling-fury-kit.html#post7388774 - Although he never ended up posting complete evidence, this was included in his "payback" report and he admits to having scammed it.
8. http://www.sythe.org/dispute-forum-...-without-any-proof-mods-please-take-look.html
Let's look carefully at this thread. This is the first post that Bogdan made showing no remorse what so ever. He lies about even talking to the people who he scammed at the time and didn't care, just wanted to be unbanned so he could continue with his scamming ventures now.

If my opinion counts thats is deception IMO. Using Teamviewer against a new user and trying to erase evidence is despicable.

Also lying to R2 wasn't a good idea. Just my 2 cents.

Quote from Firez saying that he even used Teamviewer to try and DELETE evidence? Is that the type of member we want on sythe?

Here's the rundown of this. The user spammed pardon's without being sincere until he knew his bullshit wasn't going to get him unbanned. He's staying legit on sythe, but for how long. This user has proven he has the capability of scamming high amounts, given the time he walked with over 1b. He has ban evaded over 3 times, and that's just the ones the staff knows about. 3 Ban evaded accounts, 3 failed pardon's later. and A well trusted admin saying someone who tried to delete evidence should never be allowed back on sythe. I believe the staff should reconsider the appeal before this user becomes anymore dangerous to the sythe community. He has scammed over 7 people, from amounts ranging as low as $10-$1000. The fact he was willing to scam an amount as low as $10 is baffling and shows just how "trustworthy" this user truly is. His donated amount buys him trust, and it's sad how people don't understand how 3 years of ban evading/scamming/etc went on with this user before he was magically supported by some questionable staff members. Even though he "Tried" to pay back the users he scammed, none of them will see a penny of it, because they left sythe due to him scamming these members and they'll never be seen again. He hurt sythe and it would be sad to wait for him to scam another Huge amount like he has done on Mmoexchange before something happens.

TOTAL AMOUNT SCAMMED:~$1300 at the time.

Could you point out what information was not included in his pardon?

He was already pardoned for the majority of what you've listed above and we don't "reconsider" a pardon after it has gone through its course...
(unless information which may have influenced the pardon was not included...).

You're aware of the time it took him to pardon, but there's not really much that can be done.

There were several reports missed that were never paid back, along with those. He never provided proof of paying back the 1b for the MMoexchange scam and was unbanned as he didn't include it in the last couple pardon's. Meaning he's still banned for scamming on MMOexchange and is an offsite scammer.

Where's the link to the MMO Exchange ordeal?

Under number 4 he discusses it after it was previously brought up. He had claimed he refunded it and never offered any sort of evidence for this.. Sadly MMOexchange is offline/taken down as far as I can tell and can't screenshot his profile still being banned but he admits to having scammed the amount and that he's still banned on the site. No evidence proving otherwise was posted on that pardon, and was left out on the other pardons soon after.

EDIT: Given there were more reports then previously noted, and that the staff had overlooked the 1b scam at the time and he never supplied proof of repayment in any pardon, I strongly feel the staff should reconsider this given evidence was missing that would/should/could have changed the outcome greatly.

You can clearly see in the mmogamemarket section yes, Where he scammed the 1b+ then paid it back, then scammed a purple phat just days after and never repaid that portion. That's what i'm claiming was left out and still leaves him as an offsite scammer. Mmoexchange.net however, was taken down and that's the site that shows he is still a scammer.

Looks to me like it was paid back.

He never refunded the Last phat. He was harassed and had pizza/male strippers called to his house, and his dad forced him to refund the 1b, However the phat was never recovered and that is why he had the 1b insurance he was discussing, that was as a restitution for the phat not as an insurance really as he claimed from the original post.

EDIT: He also lied in his report, he claimed he paid the 1b back because he "Felt Horrible" and all that junk. When it was because his private information was leaked and he was sick of all the Pizza/Strippers and then they called his dad and he was forced to pay it back. He had no remorse which is required for pardon's. Magical how he left this part of it out aswell, meaning the pardon wasn't completely honest at the time and easily should have changed the opinion of mods.

It says that he scammed a purple partyhat, his personal information was released, and then he gave it back.

Apparently there's a thread somewhere (or was a thread somewhere), that proved this occurred.

I don't see any of that in the discussion, the only thing it talked about was the 1b refund from what I had seen. From all the Pardon's I saw, he never once covered the extra scams that were left out, nor linked all of his Ban evaded accounts. Beyond this, the Partyhat is still questionable, and he has scammed two HUGE amounts in the past... He only repaid after his dad forced him to and he had strippers/pizza appear at his door. He had no remorse, he was purely in it to see what high amount he could manage to scam off an innocent sythe member and I really hope this is handled before he takes his opportunity now. We all know he wouldn't of repaid if he didn't have his daddy called and all his personal information leaked around... No remorse at the time which he ironically left out of the pardon to make it seem better then it is, along with many other details.

 

[Shin]

I don't see any of that in the discussion

Must have missed that part. Even so, let's see what we're left with.

We're left with a user who...
1. Scams almost 10 people for a total of almost $2500 at the time given the Phat incident aswell.
2. Ban evaded over 3 times, including scammed on his evaded accounts.
3. Lied in his pardon about the amount of times hes scammed, left out the phat incident, and made it seem like he had some sort of remorse for the 1b he scammed when all of this was repaid because his personal information was leaked.
4. Has proven he can be a threat, has lied to the community and in his pardon, has no remorse for his actions at the given time.
5. Is this someone we're wanting on sythe? Who knows how high he'll go next time and how many people will be affected.

Everything listed above has either been pardoned for or is hearsay.

As for the partyhat situation, that may have been handled privately. I wasn't a part of it, so I don't know, but any evidence regarding it seems to be inaccessible (MMOExchange).

Strongly disagree, and the partyhat situation still falls under Offsite scamming and should have been included. He never showed true remorse for his huge ass scams. His daddy made him pay that back and that was 100% left out. He never felt sorry, he would have ran with the money if he would have gotten away with it. He's a threat to sythe and I'm sorry you don't see that. When he scams, it's going to be on your consciousness.

Like I said, I never dealt with the pardon / know the timetable(s) for everything occurring (MMOExchange), so I can't judge one way or another.

He never showed true remorse for his huge ass scams. His daddy made him pay that back and that was 100% left out. He never felt sorry, he would have ran with the money if he would have gotten away with it.

I'm saying this is hearsay as it's personal interpretation / opinion / not based on fact.

He's a threat to sythe and I'm sorry you don't see that. When he scams, it's going to be on your consciousness.

IF he were to do something, I would not be responsible for it.

I also was using mmoexchange.net i took a purple phat from a user, then i returned it back. I also took torva armor and items off a guy, and i paid him back i paid him over 1.17Bill. I am very sorry, i paid those guys both back. I have over 190+ feedback on mmoexchange.net all positive a link to prove that - http://www.mmoexchange.net/trader/feedback.php?userId=4136&page=7

It was mentioned here.

Like I said I wasn't aware of that part. That does change some factors of the report, but again MMOexchange is taken down and there was no screenshots posted on the thread proving that he had payed it... At that point the staff simply took his word for it without confirming he actually repaid it which is extremely sloppy work on their part. The pardon wasn't handled how it should be and I believe that the pardon should still be reviewed. FireZ see's the danger of Bogdan and I hope after staff members realize the $1000's of dollars that bogdan scammed, and only repaid because his daddy made him after they had pizza and strippers sent to their house... He didn't show remorse in the pardon and lied about the real reason they were refunded.

 

[S]

That's perception based, and everyone has a different view. He was pardoned for everything within this thread. If you dislike his character, or question his reasons for re-payment, it's still opinion opposed to fact.

Going nowhere fast here really.

If you think the pardon should be reviewed, I would ask you to PM an upper staff member with reasoning as to why.

From the above, it appears everything in question has been included / pardoned for.
