Dealings with SPECT
Seems to me that this member likes to hijack peoples threads as part of their scam. I should have known better but i have fallen victim to this. I've noticed SPECT has hijacked a few threads saying they have things for sale, or "email this person"
Just looking out for the next guy unless SPECT can prove me wrong........

Any moderator up for looking into this. I'm going with the fact that I've already lost money here but i didn't want it to happen to anyone else here.

I emailed him about something and he said his buddy had it for sale. Asked me for my address for shipping. Asked how to pay and he said Zelle. Told him Zelle gave me no safety then he said his wife has PayPal. Asked for my full address, sent it... radio silence since.

NEVER use friends and family if the person is neither. There’s no fraud protection.

That's not the email he registered with, which in itself is not a violation of any rules as far as I can tell.
But for now at least he will be gone for a while. Should he return and cause more problems we'll deal with it at that time.

Of course.
How else would one obtain his winnings in the national lottery you didn't enter?

I can vouch for spect, I sent him an album of professionally done photos of my butthole and he sent me two 5vz superchargers and a check for $2000.

Just sayin'.
