@BillyBob i might only have 28 rating on carb, but nobody fools me when it comes to pc parts. I understand all everybody is saying, but what i am asking why was this never stopped? If people knew all of this information etc since 2011 and so on why was he able to do so many deals etc?

The account he recently used for scamming was only created end last year. He kept coming back with new names, numbers, etc.
 
@BillyBob Why are you coming forward with this info only now.
If people can speak up when shit like this happens then maybe they can save a whole lot of people the trouble.
That's why i posted my first ever bad deals thread and gave my first ever neutral rating.
 
I just checked my serial number from the latest HDD sale. It says it's covered but not sure where. How does 1 figure that out ?

@Jack_Bauer_ZA - Kan oom dit opspoor met die serial nommer of nie ?

Ek glo die ou is n poerse moes na die....

Excuse me? Wind your neck in for a second, and read my post again.

Posting about it was predicated on confirmation of Wolvebain's full refund... When I didn't receive confirmation, I informed a site admin with all the details of the deal, and was assured that BlackAdept's dealings would be watched.

I've been exceedingly vocal in the past about dodgy dealings and users to watch out for, much to the chagrin of others on the forum, who called my allegations baseless and alarmist - only to be proven right when said users did eventually show their true colours and get their asses banned...

I assure you, if you're trying to lay blame at my feet for this, you're barking up a very wrong tree.

Rectron will exchange a warrantied drive - if it's not originally their stock, they'll charge a R50 admin fee. Problem solved.

Bastid took me for 4500 in 2011.

Wrote it off back then. Did open a case though. Will follow up with the detective that handled the case tomorrow. Worth a try.
 
I bought a Inverter Generator from him real cheap. Box was old and fucked up but unit was new. I must admit that he did give me the runaround when it came to shipping too. 3 or 4 days after I paid him..
Due to his iTrader I did not think anything of it.
 
Guys i understand people's frustration here, but this guy also had great deals with a seriously high number of positive feedback, i had 3 deals with him, of which i had no problems at all. Lets see what happens here.

There is a saying in business along the lines of "Nothing matters more then how you handle your mistakes".
 
Posting this here so that details can be indexed. If anyone searches for the details, they'll find this thread for reference. Didn't we have a thread for scammers details before?

Back in 2010/11 he had 150-200+ positive itraders before he went rogue.

I dont bark... I'm not blaming you, I can handle my own shit. Just saying a public post was in order to warn others.
Look how many have been caught out now.
As soon as i realised something was up, I made a post.
 
Hi all,
please send list of serial's with warranties at distributors,
will find out what is stole and what is not
 
Damn I bought a good few stuff from this guy and lucky I received it in good working order but yes did give me the run around with regards to shipping

EDIT: Disregard this post.
 
What I find funny is I remember Reggie/Max saying to me "don't worry bud, I'm not a scammer" on one of the days when I was really annoyed with how long he was taking to do something...

P.S. Does anyone feel like doing a R10 cash deposit into his FNB bank account? It should give you his initials and surname.

How sure are you? Did you meet them both, side by side? Because BlackAdept is using a cellphone number that pops up as Reginald Moyo, he talks the same, looks the same and uses the same MO (delayed shipping, excuses on broken good, possession of a lot of stolen hardware, etc). His email address is max@infinity.co.za and Reginald also went by Reginald Infinity.

When coincidences start piling up, they become evidence.
 
@seal NO. That's borderline ban right there, and my patience with racism on the forum is running out.

I actually felt exactly the same thing but chose not to post it, in my opinion some of the statements in here indicate exactly what he was implying.
I saw the Facebook profile, the LinkedIn profiles, etc. I think it's a bit of a stretch to say they're the same people based off if the images however first hand experience could be their deciding factors.
