Without conclusive evidence I believe it's critical to give the benefit of the doubt to rezwalker to prevent abuse down the line due to any loosely-given negatives for an A->B transaction to the receiving end. If we start tagging users who receive merit from an untrusted source then it arms negatively-trusted users with the power to ruin some accounts. If then, there are exceptions, then those same users will now be able to obfuscate and dilute their actual merit abuse.

TL;DR: don't create an abusable precedent, no tag.

It doesn't have to set an absolute precedent whatever the outcome, but merit abuse should probably be taken on a case by case basis. The fact that he received merits for two separate posts within a minute by the same user who is also a scammer and was trying to sell merit it is pretty obvious some shenanigans went on here. If we were going to give people the benefit of the doubt then in probably 99% of cases there's never going to be be enough evidence to be wholly conclusive.

your not far off, He tried to buy merit from me and i gave him 2 as a test but looking at my trust do you think he got the rest.

mark him Red hahaha
