ljyoun: Okay, I'm hoping this topic is still active to some degree...

Short version is that someone (people in the thread guessed ScammerAlert/apehater.) is going around the forums impersonating me. Fairly recently, too.

At the beginning of the month, I had entered a giveaway held by Firebrand9 for the 3D Realms Anthology on Steam (see here: http://www.gog.com/forum/general/3d_realms_anthology_giveaway_steam_key/page1). In the end, I had won the key. I got the message around 1:00 and, due to not being home at the time, didn't see the message until 5:00. But it was redeemed.

Then around 7:00, Firebrand9 got a PM from an ljy0un (same name as me but with an 0 instead of o, and the same picture) asking for the key. Then he got messages from both ScammerAlert and apehater. claiming Firebrand9 had been scammed by me.

Could someone please make this new account known (ljy0un) as a scam. I've been on GOG since 2012, and this hasn't happened. However, now someone I don't know is running around trying to be me, and I'm worried that he's going to ruin any reputation I have on GOG.

Thanks.

(Attached are screenshots taken by both me and Firebrand9.)
I just want to add to this that it is the fake, imposter apehater also listed in the known scammers wiki and list.

Nope, as long as there is free stuff to be had.

Just wait. One or more of us is bound to lose a boatload of rep points for it.

I didn't mean that, I just meant as further proof the dude was a scammer since we called him out on it.

Speaking of downrepping, congratulations on hitting -300. I knew you'd make it. You really should celebrate somehow.

I wouldn't really call drinking a Budweiser a celebration, but to each their own, I suppose =)
