While I have a vague idea what is going on, you may want to explain what the thread is about.

Darkside27 posted in two sales threads that I scammed him out of money for a steel flame clip.

but it was not me, from what he just posted above, it looks like someone was posing as me and took his funds and scammed him

It was from a strider b/s/t post, seller sent a pic of this clip and said his name was saviorsix from this forum with a timestamped photo with my name on it. Just sucks I'm out $700. Maybe the pic was photoshopped I don't know I'm giving up just delete all these messages I'm giving up, my apologies.

Take a breath and relax, your inclination could be right or wrong. Let the admins figure it out.

sorry this happened to you dude, its the worst feeling in the world, recently it just happend to me and I was scammed too

Yes it is. I apologize for all of this. Hopefully admins remove the comments. The timestamp gave me a good feeling about the transaction, guess that's not good enough anymore.
 
I deleted your negative feedback a couple of hours ago on the presumption that it was exactly this scenario. (It could have been restored if it were determined to be valid.)

I recommend you take our posted "best practices" to heart...and that would include investing a few bucks to take advantage of private messaging.

Sorry you had to go through this.

I mean you no disrespect; but scammers have been faking those timestamps for well over a decade. Posting them is a feel-good gesture, at best.
