O.P. Warning: admin@msghelp.net = scammer.
A person added me and offered me moderator status on these forums. His email address wasn't verified, so I knew it was a scam but I decided to play along. First he tried getting my password on the forums, then he tried to scam my paypal. Anyways watch out for him.

List of emails used by him:
admin@msghelp.net
admin@msgpluslive.net
admin@msghelp.ne

Edit: I got his ip address, it traces to New Delhi, India. Can anyone else confirm that?

Well if I have a few of you added to my account, we can catch this person out, and perhaps warn everybody out there on the internet about this person.

EDIT: Anybody else smelling a gjs1992 (or whatever his username is now) ploy to try and get back at us again???

The next person that gets added should say "no, I'm not interested, but [chrono's email] might be interested!"
