Member ponyadore2614 Scammer - Buyer Beware

[tinrobo]

Oh no sosilver! That's awful, I'm sorry to hear that... too many nasty people in the world. Can we get a big group hug going on here please? ;3; *hugshugshugs*


PM'ing you again ponylady!

[Eternia]

wow 10 different ids?! I hate that someone is taking advantage of my little pony lovers because of all the recent popularity around the show

[lovesbabysquirmy]

If someone is able to update me on any of these other IDs, I'd appreciate it!

There's also a chance that it's a phony name/address OR someone else's details, since we know the troll is very dishonest. I'd hate to think of what we'd be held responsible for if we posted information of an innocent bystander.

If the name she is using is what is used on her Ebay account then it's her or at the very very least her parents. Nowadays it's almost impossible to make a fake Ebay account and Paypal account.

Also, a full name doesn't really put anyone in danger. Anyone can go on Facebook or MyLife and get full names instantly. I don't know why people think that if someone has your full name you are going to get attacked or have your identity stolen.

I saw she had scammed others on another pony site. That site points people here. Unfortunately if you do a Google search for Fashion Style Pony, it comes up near the top.


Should I email a mod with this info?

Claiming someone in your house took hold of your account is first thing they teach you in Scammer 101. I have seen it literally hundreds of times. Don't buy it for a second, guys. There is no sister.

The reason she contacted tinrobo with that fake story is because she IS reading this thread, and she saw that some people here have her address and the police were mentioned. Immediately after those posts were made in this thread, she contacted the one person she had a successful transaction with, in order for that person to come here and 'clear her name' with this fake story about a sister hacking her account. And she would have no doubt given you a fake address of this sister, in order to make the whole situation even more confusing, and try to get people to look elsewhere so she can avoid getting in trouble.

Don't believe her, she's just in a panic mode because she's realizing how much trouble she can be in.

I sincerely hope people who are on the Arena and other sites are keeping a look out and PLEASE alert other mods and bidders of her auctions/sales threads! Communication is key in these situations! We don't want people from other sites to get scammed, especially if she's trying to pretend to sell more Ponies, which go for so much money right now.

Exactly, I don't believe that evil sister story for one second! So sorry to those of you that got burned by this snake, but happy to see what wonderful people there are among this pony community in light of this travesty.

We have the links already to these auctions but thank you teresat.
 
RPB this did not happen on ebay.  So yes it is possible she is using a fictitious name.

The rest were anonymous. I doubt she'll use them again since she's obviously reading this thread, but it's possible that she posted elsewhere under the names in the past.

Even if you don't use EBay you can't fake a Paypal name. So if people sent her money they'd have her actual name.

Oh and she has to be 18 to have a Paypal account, unless she's using her parents account.

Pretty much what's been said above. Hopefully this cad gets her comeuppance and if she does turn off to be a minor, a nice big chat with her mother/father regarding how she shouldn't be a conman because it is bad bad bad. 

[ponylady]

I hate to disagree but no you do not have to put your real name.  It could be a cousin, a brother, grandma, neighbor, your business name, your cat, whatever. 
 
I actually just went and created another account under a complete mix-up of my name and my parents address but with my real social and birthdate. And it worked.  All paypal cares about is that they can match my social to my birthdate.  So as long as her birthdate and social security number match they do not care what she has her name as. 

[Rococo]

I thought the "sender" name for packages sent via PayPal had to match up with the bank account name used to verify the PP account?    Well, that is of course assuming she used her bank account to verify her PP account and not one of the other methods.

[ponylady]

I am not so sure about that, under my real account I have my shipping address as my business name and my personal bank account is linked to it with my husband's name because he is the main account holder.
 
And he is no where listed on my Paypal or ebay account.

[babystarz]

I think as long as the name and address tinrobo shipped to match the name from the Paypal account, we can assume it's her real info.

[Kalavista]

I'm absolutely stunned. What an evil, terrible person. Big hugs and prayers for your money back to those who got scammed by this ************ (not sure what I'd insert there, but definitely a really bad swear!!).
