Hello friend,thank you to all the community member who supported my efforts to make Numista a better place for swapping ,and helping to stop these cheaters in their attempts to fraud members ....
In continuation of my last effort https://en.numista.com/forum/topic77149.html. I have started this thread .Only with the help of members we can stop these fraud.
Presenting you the new thieve in town https://en.numista.com/echanges/profil.php?id=121644
Many member will question me what evidence I have against the member ,don't worry I have posted him after my full research .Numista admins can recheck it as they have access to website ,its the same person from Hungary.Last time he cheated many people ,this time with this profile he will not able to scam anyone.....
what i dont understand how a scamer have 10-20-30 swaps in a few days (all of you send first an he dont have any swaps made) and an old player have 2-6 swaps a month
that means he offer you a offer too good (many rare coins, silver or maybee gold coins) so if its looks too good try to look more carefully at that swaper
or do you try to swap first, maybee he dont know the value of their coins and you will deceive him and make a great swap??
My friend you got it wrong ,I have no intention to deceive anyone to get gold and silver coins and get scammed. Their are members who get 20-30 succesful swaps within a month and there are also those who have 1 swap in a year.Its a trick they use to scam that I do not want to discuss here in open forum,people get scammed not due to any greed buy mainly due to innocence is what I have observed ...
# for your information I have not been scammed by this cheater ,I want to make people aware and this is not my first or last attempt you can check my older threads on forum
Dear friends.
First of all, many thanks for your valuable efforts in detecting scammers and making Numista a safer place.
Regarding the information that we can currently check to detect suspicious activities of other swapper (swaps on the road), I think that this indicator can fail in several situations:
1- When the scammer "forget" to validate the swap.
2- When the scammer is dealing with lots of swaps and validate them at the same time.
To be honest, I think that information about the number of open swaps can give us more accurate information about the activities of potential scammers.
Best regards!
Hello friends, I want to share a message from a very senior member on Numista with whom I had a discuss about this....
Hello,
After one of the posts I wrote in the facebook groups, one collector who is interested in not only coins but antiquities too wrote that this is not one person's dirty job, it's a small gang of gypsy people who are present in a lot of buy-and-sell and swap sites as well (he mentioned they tried to deceive people in a group specialised in old watches).
They use more names and addresses according to the collector, so the best way to avoid them is to not send anything to Hungary without serious background check. I'm a bit sad to advise this because this can be a serious drawback for otherwise trustworthy Hungarian newbies. However in my opinion if someone is honest it won't be a problem for him/her to send first until he/she builds up a good swap history.
Don't send anything to Hungary if the person you send to doesn't have at least 50 ratings from long-time members AND at least 1 year membership here (if he/she is willing to send first then there is no problem).
