Please pm me with the playing names of alleged scammers, so that I can add them to the record. Thanks.

Please read the OP and all earlier warnings. Either we ban all mentions of transfers, period, or you must accept that they are entirely at your own risk; people are trying to scam you; you should obtain real life details, (name, address, phone number), about people in order to inform the police if you are scammed; exchange full details of the proposed transfer by e-mail; you should only transfer in amounts you are prepared to lose; google and Search the other person's name; ask here for references; a record of a few successful transfers can be a setup to scam on the next one; it seems likely but not definite that most scammers are newer posters; if the other guy won't transfer first, transfer in a number of small amounts; ask the other guy to sit at a table with his bankroll in front of him; etc; etc.

If you are in any doubt, or unwilling to risk losing the amount of money involved, don't offer to transfer first. Realise that you are likely to be scammed if you do.

Owing to a hacker using a long-time posters 2+2 PM facility to arrange a scam, I now also suggest that before transferring first you find out the other party's real name and e-mail the poker sites' Support to say that you understand that they cannot confirm the other guy's name, but your intention is to transfer to Player ABC whose real name is XYZ, and instruct them that if this is not the case, you do not wish the transfer to proceed.

"Let the buyer beware."

Not sure when you did it, but I just noticed the thread title edit. Good idea.

Okay, so I now realize SAMP15555 is a scammer. This thread is soooooo long it would be EXTREMELY difficult to search the entire thread looking for the name.
A sugestion to the moderator, start another thread, or better yet, a post that cannot be added to, except by you, with the names of scammers. That would be much easier to deal with then 155 pages looking for a scammer.
Anyhow, I appreciate the attempts at helping us avoid scams. Funny thing is, I have been playing online poker for 4 or years now and this is the FIRST time I have tried any kind of transaction with someone i didnt know. Doesnt speak well to the generall honesty level out there.

Owing to your allegedly having been scammed I have realised that I shouldn't give all readers credit for having even one iota of common sense when giving money to an unknown person on an anonymous internet board. The most brief and casual check should have warned you to be on guard, although you do appear to live in Fairyland.

Hence, I have amended the title of the thread. If someone else gets scammed, allegedly, in a similar manner to you after this amendment, then even you will be able to have derisive thoughts about how naive must some people be.

I trust you have reported the alleged scam to PS? They won't give you your money back, but they should stop this POS from being able to accept other p2p transfers. I'm sure that one day soon his RL name and address will be leaked, (accidentally, of course), to someone here and when that happens I'd guess he might be paid a RL visit from some of his allegedly scammed friends.

I would like to recieve $25.00 on PokerStars and I will give $25.00 on FullTilt. This is my first time so please pm me.

[Minn_pokerplyr]

What ever happened to miami32? Why is he still allowed to post here after scamming people?

[Mike Haven]

There is considerable doubt that he is a scammer. Read all the relevant posts.

He is on the alleged scammers list.
