Thank you Gannu for bringing us this important info. :)

[Now, I will be on your side if anyone brings up the Play "RA One" campaign again.] :)

^^ I guess you didn't get the point I was trying to make.

Lets say that the Admin or you yourself take charge of getting ID Proofs from the members and put a colored dot in the members post header. For anyone seeing that dot, it would mean that the user has provided ID proof to you which you have checked and marked the user as a user whose identity is verified. Essentially you/Admin are vouching for the members identity with that dot.

If someone deals with that guy and the guy turns out to be a fraudster who had produced a fake id, Who would the victim hold liable. Surely the person who vouched would be held liable in addition to the culprit. Would you or the Admin be willing to take that sort of liability? If you don't want to take liability, then there is no point in all that exercise, because there is no way a user would give any sort of importance to that dot if the person who put it there is not willing to take responsibility.

Hmm what you wrote i understood that in your first post itself

When did i write something about vouching for someone or willing to take the resposibilty ?

Anyways i think you may be right. You are a better experienced member here than me and you definately know more about TE and its happenings as compared to me :)

Was just trying to help in whatever way i could :)
 
Another way of ID proofing someone could be to ask for a copy of the bank statement along with the Photo ID in which the seller is asking the buyer to deposit the money. The only motive for this is to get the correct address and contact details of the seller as out of all ID proofs, the bank statement is the first to be updated in case anyone moves to a new house or city and most of us generally keep our bank records up-to-date on a priority basis. The seller can mask all the privileged info and just provide the part where his address is printed on the statement. Might not be workable on an admin level as some of the sellers use different bank accounts for different transactions but is certainly viable on a buyer/seller level.
 
Guys,

There is a workaround for any and most checks that the site / admins put in place, like someone mentioned its best to deal with known people and senior respected members or deal with people in your city, where you can inspect the product first hand, other than that online dealings will always have a disclaimer.
 
Finally the right thing has happened. Was waiting for this since a long time ever since I notified the mods about kishan using a fake id to deal on TE.
Cheers to mods & admins of TE
 
i m somewhat shocked to see this.couple of months ago i bought a graphics card from BoRNTeRRI3T..the fun side is that i negotiated with Kishan razor through another forum nd almost completed the deal,then suddenly came to see the alert thread against Kishan// I did some wise thinking and decided to cancel the deal...In the mean time i saw the same model GPU being put on sale by a member in this forum.Went ahead and bought the card, and the member is none other than BoRNTeRRI3T!!! and the card was exactly the same piece....:)

PS: I got the card in promised condition and stuff.Also got the bill and shipping was timely overall im happy with the deal...
 
^^ Dude remember the Seagate 1.5TB that you had bought from kishan and cancelled the order ! Now there are some issues with the drive and when I went for RMAing it...it was found that HDD is not valid India drive and I have no bills as usual from Kishan to support ! If you are still in contact with him let me know if you can check this out with him :)
