To fellow users of bitcointalk.org,

I haven't been on this forum for very long and I have already encountered more scammers and scams than I have ever before. I've lost about $500 already through several scammers on this website which led to the creation of my list. Though this will not fully put an end to scams, I only hope to control it to help out the bitcointalk community. please put this list to good use.

This list will be updated over time.
Here is a list of scammers/potential scammers I've encountered on bitcointalk.org:

Impersonator on Skype was not actual user.
