is there a hack to set the status of a person say avatar / signature such that only other members can see that message & the specific member cant see that ? then the need for ban will not be necessary..:lol:

what do i do now ?
If some suspicious caller want to confirm your Number saying "Hello Mr.Tushar or something other" just say you are not Same and ask caller not to call again.
Supra said:^^ How about Blacklisted member being appeared under the name....anyway the problem will be that he will rather create a new id and start all his deeds again. And if anyone gets conned that will be bad thing.
Btw do we have a feature of Mac address ban :rofl:
Well, we can put their location,name,mobile number,back account number in that thread
i am sure, most people can't fake Bank account & mobile numbers. so its pretty safe.

I think you can use all the PM's, posts and all records of communication with the offender as evidence. Once with the cybercrime department, they can request TE to provide ip addresses etc to trace the offender. Maybe the admins can clarify further on this topic.

not really. in this case, no specific crime was committed you see. If he had taken someones money or something, then you could do something about it, and take trouble over it. otherwise its too difficult to prove.

Lets not get into specisc of this case, and discuss what should one do if some runs with money, how to contact police & how to keep your track. so you don't face any difficulty to prove him fraudster.
I remember talking to him once o twice.. Ironically, he posted his number freely on the forum :

Guys guys, this is not a witch hunt. Yes, we have his phone no as well. But there is no need to get this man at the moment. so calm down.
Fortunately this was brought to attention in time it seems and warning was posted to alert possible victims.

as of now it is an attempted scam, suspicious behaviour has been highlighted, not an offence, as funky said earlier if you wanna deal with him do it face to face
methinks he is just a misguided kid trying to make a fast buck, (due to the non professional nature of the attempted scam )

Ok...I have something to say here and also a request...
I think there should be a section where people (buyers) can ask a common question to all the members of the TE and Mods about, whether or Not a particular Seller (or Dealer) is trustworthy or not and who all here can take responsibility if something goes wrong...i mean in such cases if a mod/admin or a reputed member agrees that this guys is trustable, the buyer can thus have confidence in the deal (seller/dealer) and can go ahead in the deal at his own wish.
Personally i mean i am hesitant in giving like 50k in advance to Dealers and members organizing GO's for Dell laptops without any guarantee at all. I think the address of all dealers should be made public and the mods/admins on this forum should know them or be ready to take responsibility for them. This all will help both the dealers, GO organisers and the potential buyers.
If i am missing something here, please feel free to point out.
Thanks

hmmm there is somthing called as itrader profile; doesn't that give you confidence? Also I would shy away from a new trader knowing that there are no good reps.
~LT
The iTrader is there.........but even i feel that our Adresses and all should be kept with the admins.......This should be valid for us dealers as well as people who organise GOs for any item exceeding a given amount , lets say 10k or so.......Even if they are not let out in the public, at least it gives u guys a record right.the iTrader is a good system , but we are all humans...so we are all selfish to some extent ....doesnt take time to get lured away right? Just my 2c , not as a dealer, but as a Techie who deals online........

Most of the forums requires having a picture of your user name to be written on a piece of paper next to item when items are sold.Helps a bit in most cases at least to prove the possession.
How's paypal in India?Doesn't it also have the protection and things?

I don't know how I missed this thread. Now I gotta know the reason behind the mandatory picture thing.
But I will like to know one thing. Can't people like tushar post a picture of something they own and then refuse to transfer after receiving the money? Then what? I don't think that rules like these stop fraudsters.
PS: I am just curious. Not that I want a flame war or anything. So please take this in good spirit and answer.

I know, but he can still commit frauds with items he owns, doesn't he? Or what if he goes to a showroom or to a friend/relative and clicks a picture of any expensive item with a slip with his name written on it?
My idea is: we all should request Safin to make a hack just like eBay PaisaPay and involve some respected member of the community to hold the money (which is tranfered by the buyer to the involved member) until both the buyer and seller are satisfied with the trade. Seems difficult to implement but not impossible?

in a ideal world where ppl wud have loads of time to devote these activities this would be possible ...
