I'm sorry you feel the way you do, but I'd do it all again. You need to hit scammers hard and fast, so they don't have enough time to make up believable lies.
Remember the dark wooden round he posted a photo of, with white-blond wood shavings on top, as if they had just been shaved off the piece?
I suspected he was running a scam from the get-go, and I did in fact wait until I was absolutely sure before I pulled the trigger. I understand that some of my words may have been offensive to some, but I have no tolerance for scammers.
I am an owner of a 40w laser engraver, and an immediate family member of mine is a professional woodworker, so I am familiar with most of the tools involved here, yet none of the evidence you have produced as of yet is 100% proof of anything. One thing you need to keep in mind is YOU ARE NOT INFALLIBLE. You may be 100% assured of your conclusions, but that doesn't mean you are 100% right. The fact that you seem to be willing to leave no room for your own error and inject the extra vitriol that no one would welcome, scammer or not, demonstrates to me your own inability to reason. In short you are unnecessarily muddying the waters of what my or may not be an accurate scam accusation to satiate your own emotional compulsions. This addition of emotional content makes it harder for ALL ACCUSERS, as well as ALL ACCUSED, even innocent ones.
