pimpmonkey2382.313: Hope the real guy got that game redeemed before the scammer did.

Firebrand9: He says he did.
Yeah, I did. I redeemed it as soon as I saw it.

I cringed when I seen the whited out part and said "Ah fuck" at the same time.

Good, glad something good came out of it. Thread has been made a clusterf*** due to that asshole.

pimpmonkey2382.313: I'm amazed he didn't go on an angry PM tirade on you for not giving it to him, he's been known to do that too.
He did that too, under the following names :
- ScammerAlert
- apehater.

I'll provide sceenshots of these social engineering attempts too.
Here's the other.

Firebrand9: It's already done, so it goes to whoever. But this thread is linked at the point where I mention it, so hopefully they'll read through and forward it to the person you mention.
Ok, not a pb, i was a bit late :P

anyway the main issue : users could be impersonated too easily since GOG got the "bright" idea to display username in caps in chat -_-.

That one seemed like another attempt at him getting the game from you, he's been known to sit there and flood people with endless insults, etc.

As did I when I realized exactly what had happened. Fortunately the real ljyoun was quick enough (by a wide margin he says) to redeem it, rendering it useless. So, indeed, the best man won.

Of course, it was all that. Social engineering 101. The sad part is, if this loser put this level of effort into gaining things legitimately, he'd go much further in life. If he keeps this up, he's in for a rude awakening at some point. If I had access to GOG's server logs, I'd take matters into my own hands, but we'll just be glad that I don't.

I hate how the apehater. message used my message toward pimpmonkey and claimed that was proof I was some scammer.

Also, I got the notice posted in the scammers topic (http://www.gog.com/forum/general/known_scammers_mach_two/post945). Hopefully, people see it soon.

The best man? No I think the man won. :P I don't know what that other asshole is but it's not human though I'm leaning toward it being some sort of human residue like excramate or toe jam.

Obfuscation and deception are rules of war. Pit one person against another under the guise that they're the culprit, confusion ensues, and here's the aftermath.

Toe jam has more redeeming qualities. Don't insult it that way! It has a rich inner life...

This "guy"? Absolute candidate for some DSM IV-spectrum personality disorder.

That's exactly what I said, I wish gog would just ban him, he'll NEVER be a legit customer here. Only way he'll get anything is trying to fool people out of games. So gog would lose nothing of value by banning his IP.

Hope you don't mind Firebrand, but along with the screenshots, I linked back to this topic in the forum post on the known scammers (http://www.gog.com/forum/general/known_scammers_mach_two/post945).

Not at all. I'm happy to help with the documentation that leads to his eventual banishment.

Also I want to say sorry firebrand about getting into a flamewar with that guy in your giveaway, but that asshole pisses me off when he attempts character assassination, he just pisses me off and I know it didn't help anything but had to stand up for myself.
