Icon8 Hacked - Scammer grandhulk@yahoo.com posting

Someone tipped me off that a scammer has been posting from my account (one offering I know if is for a BNLR). If you are buying from The Keystone you should be conversing with Max or Justin and email should have an @thekeystone.com domain. This scammer is using contact info:

grandhulk@yahoo.com
509-651-2408

BUYER BEWARE!

If they were using my account here; would they write a post about being a scammer?

That was my post, they were not posting about it. My account has now been banned. Is it possible to resolve the ban or have I lost my account and have to start over?

The scammer was courteous enough to send bank information with his home address on 48th Ave SW in Seattle, WA.

He also claimed to be member hzulfiqar, which is very unlikely as that member is Australia.

I believe that we are talking about moabbott ‘s account being hacked not yours or are you Max? If so pm TRF administrator Lol-x to reverify your acct. sorry for the confusion.

Yes, moabbott was my account but the account has been banned. I had to make a new one to try and figure out what is going on. Really hoping I didn't lose my moabbott account for good.

Is this connected to some user indy5050 (from watchuseek) in anyway? Received an email asking to email at the mentioned email address.

Received a PM on here from Moabbot and a PM on Watchuseek from user indy5050 both with the same message and the same email here. Definitely a hacked account. The hacker is obviously monitoring it closely because I pm'd indy5050 at WUS instead of the email and got an immediate response saying "no, my account is not hacked, but the watch is on hold pending funds".
