Hey there. I got scammed from a dude portraying himself as "Daniel". Afrikaans gentleman from Cape Town. He sends through an ID and drivers license of someone completely different to scam people into buying graphics cards. I was able to contact the real Daniel and found out that this guy has been doing this for a while and he will continue to do this if he isn't stopped. He explained that he originally targeted people from Carbonite even though I was scammed from another source. He was apparently convincted a few years ago but seems to be at it again. If you or anyone you know have dealt with this person or have any info on this individual please pm me. The more we have on this guy the better and quicker he will be brought to justice.

If I can give one piece of advice for you guys:

If you ever need to send your ID for something,add some watermarks,Paint is pretty good,draw diagonal lines a few pixels wide over the whole ID in a distinct colour like red,and add a date/timestamp across your photo with who's receiving the ID

100% , also i found a good way to avoid scam artists is to arrange video calls .
