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.
You may be right that a scammer is a scammer but anyone with an objective mind here will see the following very clearly:
1) that TF came up with some unsubstantiated accusations about me approximately 3 years ago and
2) the fact that I've got absolutely 0 other complaints from anyone since and
3) the fact that I'm not doing any trading things here (never have) and
4) the fact that you were running around calling me "an idiot" and
5) the fact that I personally disagreed with you in several threads here in Meta and elsewhere
6) the correlation between you're resignation from the signature ad campaign we were both in and the appearance of trolling alt ACCTSeller saying he was going to get me kicked out of my campaign
7) the appearance of your negative feedback on my account, successfully getting me kicked out of my campaign appearing within only a few hours of ACCTSeller's necro bump of the discussion of TF's false accusations

your intransigence in the face of everyone on here saying "wtf? you're neg-repping a guy for ancient history accusations from a known scammer/liar"
All this adds up to exactly one obviously conclusion, you decided to get me removed from my campaign for personal reasons, ie, you didn't like that I called you out as a hothead and you found a way to get me back for it.
