Default Possible beware

I tried dealing with noahkrisetq on a buggy, got no where with him, kept open promises that he would send me pictures, then he posted a new for sales ad after i told him to consider it pending because all i wanted was more picture before purchasing, then finally after a week i got most of the pictures, then he quit responding, so i gave up. Then i found out he was going to send picture of the tires he promised me to another member on here, which he never did. I was going to let it go till i saw a thread where it looks like he has 2 accounts both selling the same item for a friend, and both have horrible spelling. So i thought i would give everyone a heads up.

Good catch.

Both accounts are using the exact same ads.

In the newer ad listed by durango23, he must have forgotten he was signed in as noahkrisetq when he bumped it.

Have you reported the ads to the mods?

Regardless of what we think, the mods should be aware of it. I'd report it, let them take care of whatever needs to be done. (If anything)

I mean i have two accounts, but it was because this account was messed up and i had to make a new one to notify the mods, and now i don't use that account.

Glad some of you are catching on and doing some real good by reporting these duplicate accounts. Talking about it here is all fine and dandy, but reporting them will get them both deleted.

Thank you.

I mean, dear God, was he drunk when he made these ads?


That's my attempt at the corrections.

Yes, but then you remove the ironic humor from Stang's posts when you do that.

I like how someone spells the same word a couple of different ways. Kinda like they can't remember how they spelled it the first time.
