stealth,

it's not your responsibility to notify me everytime you have a hunch something is wrong, but on the flipside if you didn't notify me it's kind of ridiculous to come in here and condescend to everyone that you knew all along and didn't mention it "because I have less than 300 posts" and it wouldn't have made a difference.

If 15 stealthmunks had pmed me you bet your ass it would have made a difference.

Gild,

People saying they were suspicious of Vig probably were. At the same time their only responsibility was to not donate, if anyone had any evidence that he was a scammer of any sort you would've gotten a PM.

Vig snuck through and passed the BBV test. There wasn't a lot of sentiment that he might not be on the up and up and most of the evidence we now have came out after the donations were made.

Give Gild credit for saying "enough is enough" and not allowing him to continue posting, it looks like he had every intention of milking BBV for a lot more money.

We don't have to stop all charitable giving...but the next person who is truly in need is going to need to go through a lot more hoops in order to get help. If someone is in such dire straits that he/she has to go to "internet friends" for assistance then they should be willing to provide undeniable proof.

Yea Grifter I agree completely with everything you just said.

I never said it was people's responsibility to pm me or anything. But don't come in with your chest puffed saying 'I told you so' when you didn't do anything. The funny thing is the people that did tell me so have not contributed to the thread yet or at least are not being asses about it. The people that didn't do anything are being the most vocal.
