Attempted Phyber Impersonator [UID-2545116] - Cycle - Dec 29, 2014
REPORTED'S PROFILE: https://hackforums.net/member.php?action=profile&uid=2545116
Hi,
I was trying to sell my knife earlier today. I got a message from this user saying he was interested, and to add him on Skype .(https://puu.sh/dPcN3/c5372106f1.png)
I did so, we then agreed on a price and he suggested Phyber. I suggested we use Package since he was available at the time. This user then strongly pushed Phyber saying he had already paid the fees. (https://puu.sh/dPdf9/59ea3ab014.jpg)
Naturally, I was like: "Whatever, Phyber is trusted", but I was wary.
So this guy adds me and "phyberzhf" to a Skype group chat (https://puu.sh/dPdqP/ab4fc3b805.png)
That Gyazo link is a screenshot of Phyber logged into HF.
The way he was so strongly preferential to using Phyber, and paid the fees before I consented to doing so (supposedly) is pretty weird. Him and his mate are clearly trying to pull off a scam. If this serves nothing but to warm others, thats cool.
EDIT: Someone requested the Gyazo link: https://gyazo.com/0acc95774960895b8d09cba0d63c4948
Some good banter:

Doesn't seem too legit. How do you know that's him?

"Can't PM on phone"? What kind of lame excuse is that? Of course you can login to HF on your mobile and PM.

Its even better that he can take a screenshot and send a link to that but not PM.

Even though I don't like Tom Hardy. This isn't sufficient proof that it is him. Sorry.

"Can't PM on phone"
Bullshit.
Reeks of bullshit, very good that you didn't fall for anything like this.

This is great proof that it is him.

Its super obvious, but people still fall for it. Hopefully this gets a black-mark against his name.

I had like 3 Phyber impersonators on my skype fl. I accidentally invited the wrong one and I lost my 2$ https://gyazo.com/1fe06b744007cfd698ed58c0721b44cc
I do have the real phyber as he has MM'd me for me before. https://gyazo.com/7cb12fe5dc588ec393cef07daf25d25c
this was nothing but a misunderstanding that this skid is trying to make a big deal out of.

So he's MM'd for you before - but now he's suddenly got a random new Paypal under a random new name. Close, but no cigar.
Further to that, why the fuck would you send the money to a random account?
Can we also see a full screenshot of that $2 payment please - the whole window I mean.

If you knew they were impersonators why didn't you delete them?
