    Anyone know him in the real world? He was both in a FF BIF I ran and Ran one I was in. He sent a message about who was shipping to me for winning (he was one) and he owes a box in the one I ran. He has not been on since January 6th.

    Anyone know his deal?

    He got paid out about 12 boxes in the NCAA pickem BIF as well. Hasn't posted a single haul or even checked in with any of his senders to say thanks. He was called out during that BIF for not paying in another BIF and eventually he showed up and I think he made good.

    @Syracuse12 and @Damian74Shensky may know more about it or have contact info.

    Yes, he ended up making good in the other BIF for a mid-season box which he said was due to a family emergency, which is why he was permitted to continue in my league.

    I know he owes a box in another league, and one participant in my league is holding out shipping to him and may ship to the winner in the other league.

    @Cuzco I'm happy to help out where I can, so feel free to BM me. I'm curious what other boxes he might owe. If anyone knows of any other leagues that he owes a box in, please message me or tag me here.

    The only other one I know of is Summer78's Epic NFL Confidence.
    I would advise that no one else in the NCAA BIF ship to him until this is straightened out.

    Jeez this again? I'm glad he seems to eventually make good, but how many times will we need to go through this?

    Looks like he is gone for now. I will take care of shipping out his box and won't hold my breath for the one he is supposed to be shipping to me.

    Mods can we change this thread to a bad trader thread title?

    What a pos! Looks like still hasn't logged on in 3 weeks. I happened to be in one of the BIF's he was in so I've been following this thread. With his history of being flaky, I can only assume if he meant to make good he would have a least communicated with someone by now.

    But no, he clearly stayed in the BIF's he was in, mine in particular, because he knew he had a great chance at winning. Once he got his beers for winning he disappeared. Punk ass b!tch.

    Sorry you got burned Cuzco.

    I recently deleted several old trade request BMs. I no longer have his info. I think I may have found his tel # through looking him up on linkedin. I think he works for an engineering firm in IA. I don't even remember his name. I would try looking him up through linkedin.

    done.

    also see he has 1 negative feedback and one neutral on back to back days in september. i expect the FF started before that?

    also did some checking on that "good" IP trade from december. i think it's bogus. user @IACanMan hasn't been on since the day after and i can confirm a static, corporate IP match between the him and @Gerbs2 ...*not* in iowa. @Todd can you check further? seems to be a bogus dupe account to manipulate the feedback system. :angry:

    Same person. Both accounts have been banned. And I'll talk with mods about other actions we can possibly take for him and other (really) bad traders going forward; like publishing personal information for reference.

    This has been his MO multiple times, and when called on it before receiving winnings he would pony up, I guess this time the sequence of events just so happened to go in the reverse order and he was able to skate free and clear like he probably hoped to in the past.
