Recently, people have been accusing me that I am a scammer. The main people who are claiming this have 0 proof whatsoever that have been presennted aside for some hearsay and false information spread through rumors so I am making this post to try to clear my name. Recently, there have been some issues with the packages I have been getting. There has been a total of 4 issues out of all the trades and transactions I have done.
List of issues from oldest to the most recent.
Tactical stache - He sent me a package of one of the bros I purchased from him. I unboxed it on video and the package was empty. I contacted him about it and he said he is almost sure that he shipped it though he might have made a mistake. We resolved it and decided he was going to refund me for it though that was a few months ago and I just allowed him some time till now to gather up the cash.
DavisWaalkers - His package arrived at my doorstep damaged and partially opened though all the contents of the box was safely stored inside. There was a tag from USPS that they had placed on to the package to notify me that it was opened when it arrived at their plant.
Here is the post on that:
https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=33130.msg1743167#msg1743167Madhias - His package arrived and it also was partially opened by the time it arrived since the tape on one of the sides were broken. I notified him about this and he had some doubts so I went to get an official letter from the local post office to have a better proof aside for the tag that the mailman had stuck on to the opened/unsealed package. I originally told him that since it wasn't completely his fault and the other half of the package was still in the box, perhaps we could figure out a fair way to resolve this but Madhias insisted he wants to ship the item back instead.
You can see that the other side of the box is also about to break open due to stress since the tape isn't quite holding it securely.Here is a photo of the letter with redacted info since it is against ToS to post personal info in publicI unfortunately will not be able to post the package with the address from madhias since it will be against the ToS though the mods have already seenn that this box is indeed the one madhias sent the items in. It was missing some items though the other cap inside the package remained in there. The letter wasn't written very well because it wasn't the postmaster who wrote it himself but rather the attendant. If you have any questions about this letter's authenticity, feel free to call the number or Google plover post office if you doubt that this number is correct. They can verify that this letter did in fact come from them.
boradori007 from here and reddit - I messaged him if the enviro he was selling for 400 was already sold, he told me that it is pending but if I were to pay him 525, he would cancel the other transaction and sell it to me instead. I agreed to this and paid him the 525. The package arrived and I unboxed it while taking a video and the package turned out to be empty. He claims that he did in fact send an enviro but it was on video that nothing was inside.
For those people who were originally trying to say I am lying, they don't really have any proof to back their claims though they have been long time members here on GH so I am writing this to shine some light on the situation and people can decide for themselves if I did in fact scam or not.
Here are some questions that people ask in terms of legitimacy and authenticity.1)Why do I open packages in a weird way.
ANS: I open almost all my packages the exact same way. I have recorded many unboxing videos and won't mind sharing them to members of the community who are interested in seeing my video evidence since I cannot post it due to mods removing them for containing sensitive info.
2) People from keycon apparently think that I am not the person on my avatar and on the photos I've posted in the past. Just because I gained 80+ pounds since the photos were taken doesnt mean it was not me. Booper annd binge and several other members at keycon Chicago saw my wife and my child there who is no doubt the same exact girl on the photos I've uploaded in the past. I can provide more proof of that if you have any doubts but I seriously think it is offensive that I somehow am a different person jsut because I've gained some weight.
3) What could have possibly prevented you from openening the package beforehand and the retapping them? Or even put it in new boxes just for the unboxing videos.
ANS: I have videos of unboxings which contain both printed and hand written addresses which i clearly cannot fake. I can't simply retape a package because the videos will display that the there are signns of tamper which there aren't in my opinion.
4)Am I cheating and scamming.
ANS: I have dealt with many members here on GH and on reddit as well. I really don't plan on ruining my reputation in terms of purchasing and trading over 3 silly caps when I can very easily just buy them without the hassle this has caused. I have purchased high value items from many members and have never really had any issues aside for the. listed here unless I am failing to recall others.
5) If you were to be a scammer, you would have gone as far as making this videos just to prove your point, and cheated in them no matters what way you would have use.
ANS: I can provide many videos of me opening other packages from several months ago and can probably have those people I got them from verify it. Some of them were sealed and taped while others were simply closed without tape but no issues occurred either way.
6) Why do you open your packages weird?
ANS: I have over 6 videos from different times as well as different people showing how I open my packages and it is indeed consistent in terms of my unboxing method.
I hope this clears up some things. Please don't believe everything you are hearing even from long time established members unless they actually provide you some proof. Please be skeptical about things you hear.
VIDEO RECORDINGSI will provide you with several video recordings that I have as proof of both the packages being empty as well as other videos that showcases how I open packages in genenral for you to examine. I cannot post it here because the mods will simply delete it but do feel free to PM me for further inquiries and if you'd like these videos. Many of my transactions are from known members here but many of them requested anonymity so I can only provide those videos of my packages coming from people who never requested our transactions to be between me and them only.
