Largest Scams

Fairly new and it got me thinking after I saw many disputes. What's the biggest scam that happened on HackForums? How much was it for and how did it happen?
I’d say this is up there

User called Anonymous, he scammed for ALOT of money. $50k+ atleast.


Oh look, I've found a thread about him. This was back in 2014: https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?ti...95&page=12

Thanks for this, interesting read to refresh some memories. So many of the replies from people who were "big" at that time and got closed later

Nice information. That's big scam report.
Why did such a large transaction not involve any middlemen or 3rd parties at that time?

He was a trustworthy person back then. He scammed multiple people in a short period of time (some even at the same time). That's how he managed to scam a large amount of money.

Let's say I scam you;

And I tell you it'll take like 3 days before I have "time" to give my product to you, you wait 3 days. But in these 3 days I scam others. That's how he kinda did it.

That was certainly a wild ride. I remember I wore Anonymous' signature for a vpn a day and he gave me $100 for it. All i remember was something about doing coke, someone meeting up with him or something. It was a long story.
Didn't know the Anonymous scam so I'm gonna read about it know since it's so major. The biggest scam I've read about here would be like 2-3k$ worth of scam.
I could imagine someone selling a "useless" ebook or product to multiple users in a short period of time could startle the general audience. Usually, members on forums gather a sufficient amount of positive rep and beef up their accounts in order to pose as trusted or reputable. In the end, it's not worth the gamble.

I wish to never EVER make it on a thread like this or a list. I've been scammed before and its not fun smh.
