Why the need to point fingers like this? Does it give you some kind of satisfaction?

Sure you belong here?

pure sarcasm like that won't last very long here

leave the OP alone.... he sure as hell doesn't need someone to rub it in his face that he lost $7,500. He seems to know A lOT more than some of us including me here so I don't find you remarks very helpful. Take that elsewhere

Mark comes on here to educate us on a scam and a scammer and maybe get some compassion and sympathy from fellow members. He gets salt thrown into his wound. Really uncool Bearone2.

Sorry if you have already answered this, but the fact that the scammer had 11 posts and is new to that forum did raise any red flags?
Yes it did. I asked all the right questions and he gave all the right answers.

2) maybe get some input on how to recover my money
Not to have some newbie try to make me feel stupid.
You're not helping.
A crappy situation , I appreciate the heads up Mark.

That s@cks. Doubt it's much consolation, but you might be able to write off the value of the loss on your taxes.

I hadn't thought about that. I'll check with my accountant. Thank you very much for the suggestion!

No, your quite right.

One more tactless/stupid post from Bearone2 and I'm sure he will be on his way out the door.

I surprised he survived post 82.
