Default Transfer scammers

ArnieF is a n00b with 10 posts, most of which are asking for transfers. He is accused in the zoo transfer thread of scamming on 10-10-07.

Within the last few days, a well-known and respected ssnl poster tufat23 was scammed by this same guy for $1k. Tufat corresponded with the guy under his ArnieF name. Tufat's acct was closed on Cake for fraudulent activity as ArnieF's acct had scammed someone else on Cake so tufat got linked to it. Evidently Arnie gets $$$ onto a site via a bad credit card somehow and then transfers it to unsuspecting folks.

Now he has reappeared as Calidonk and has made 3 posts on 2p2, all of which are asking for transfers.

It seems to me that this poster (and probably a few others like him) is using 2p2 solely as a vehicle to scam people via funds transfers.

What can be done about it? I know it's always "buyer beware" but it doesn't seem right that we allow this guy to post here in order to scam people.
