IMO, I don't think anyone should trust TF's word. He was a liar and a scammer.
I didn't trust TF's word, I read through
this thread and found that it was admitted that the OP cheated TF out of an unknown amount of Bitcoin. The amount is/was disputed however I think it is pretty clear that that the OP scammed. MZ quoted the relevant posts
here although there are more posts that point to his guilt.
I don't trust TF and don't like putting pressure on people to help/repay him however a scammer is a scammer.
